Wonderfully penned observant poem about the aqueous downfall that forces us to hope that it will soon stop. I enjoyed the humorous ending. Thanks for posting. : -)

As I listen to the steady Drip and every drop, I begin to wonder if It's ever going to stop! .............../////////// beautiful poetic expression; beautiful poem
Superb poem, I am lost in my thoughts after reading this poem, spring, rain and silent love.10++++
I'm looking forward to Spring and the rain she brings. All we have here is ice and snow. Loved the write, it flows wonderfully. And the play with words is a treat. Strikingly vivid. A memorable penning, and a fun read. Loved it.
Awesome expression... As I listen to the steady Drip and every drop, I begin to wonder if It's ever going to stop! Trees are bending in the wind Despite their soaking tops, My poor balcony's a mess, I'll have to get the mop! .., ....thanks
Raindrops glistening on tree leaves Like diamonds in the sun, Tiny little rivulets Of water on the run, Rain cascades from gutters like A waterfall's begun, Instant birdbaths for the birds, They're having lots of fun....sweet poetic flow..

WOW, Thank you, Bernard! Nature poems are always a popular topic.
What a beautiful tribute to rain. Such vivid imagery. Made me think of the songs Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head; Raindrops; Rhythm of the Falling Rain. Love all 3! Thank you, dear poetess for the memories!
Thank you, Richard, for such a positive comment! I have all 3 of the songs you just mentioned on an oldies playlist. Rain is a magical and soothing topic for poets and lyricists alike! : -)
'Raindrops glistening like diamonds'-fine imagery. The sound of rain falling appeals to me, but sometimes you have to get the mop.
The listening is fun and relaxing. The mopping up after- - Not so much.
before you get the mop to clean the balcony, look up again at such a beautiful sight to see.
when you return from getting the mop, the sun will have reached the top, and dead in your tracks you will stop excellent write!
Hahaha, enjoyed the humour in your rhyming comment! Thank you, Louis!
Wow mesmering raindrops....just don't mop...play with the water. And enjoy..
