Here comes the Rain!

Again… The typhoon season has arrived.

Amazingly, it never was a favorite season of mine because everything seemed pretty much dreary and bleak and, well, sometimes it can render various emotions mostly “EMO” like. Somehow, with weather like this, I find myself lazy and in a mode of reminiscing all the “might have been’s.” Strange enough, I’m a person who defies regrets and makes the most out of what I can manage.

But I guess, life has a way of reflecting some paths you’ve failed to cross or haven’t seen.

In the Rain

Rene Cloke

There is no color in the rain


It’s only water, wet and plain.


It makes damp spots upon my book


And splashes on my new dress, look!


But puddles, in the rainy weather,


Glisten like a peacock’s feather.

A peacock’s feather…

it’s such a colorful interpretation for the reflections of light and color seen in puddles

which lead me into finding an apt image to describe the end of the poem.

I believe in visual impact — to enhance a feeling or translate something difficult to explain besides, in this “DIGITIZED” age,

media seems to be highly Indispensable so what better way to define things, right?

Most people love the rain and think of it as means of cleansing, similar to how others perceive that kind of weather as starting anew (that depends actually if it will be sunny the next day – like breaking up and finding closure ^^). The rain, somehow, is like saying goodbye to loneliness and welcoming something new… supposedly that’s how it’s supposed to turn out. How I wish I felt that way instead of having a self-inflicted emotional downpours whenever it starts to rain from dusk till dawn.

Clazziquai – Gentle Rain

The song is in Korean (and I’m disappointed that I cannot translate the lyrics) I’m still glad that most of the song had English parts which I am tremendously grateful for, because it let’s me at least understand the story or message behind it.
