Josie Whitehead’s Poems
by Josie Whitehead
One million feet are pattering
Upon my window pane.
One million tiny drops announce
The arrival of the rain.
One million feet come clattering
On dark streets, cold and bare,
One million drops will splatter on
The cold and blustery air.
One million feet are scattering
One million drops of rain
One million wet drops offering
Life to the world again.
