Analysis of Raindrops Appears At My Window
Raindrops on my unclean window
drops without the sound,
My unclean window's like a desert
my oasis.. pray ne'er be found.
Neath these skies of dense gray clouds
I stand here at my window,
Many raindrops do then fall
I await my friendly rainbow.
As the light breaks through the cloud
colors they appear,
One of peach tugs at my heart
I know my darlings near.
Now my window holds your face
your image still remains,
Where I stand is where you smiled
now gone are all my pains.
