Who is Inoue? In any event, this is a very lovely poem, about perhaps more than just rain yes? :-)

I like how you say youd write about rain not love, but that in writing about rain you're writing about love.

I love rain too!! Ok, but besides that, I really really like this piece. I love the line: I smiled at the beauty of destruction. It really makes the reader think about their perception of rain too. Which is always good! Good Job!

Very well written. It gets a bit iff-y in places, your description is wavery and drippy, but of course in a good way that flows with your style. Love is what I feel when i see the rain and you balance it perfectly. Very good tone, well done.
Live long and prosper-

Finally! Someone else who connects rain with love. I feel the same way about it. So often we get those writers that only think rain pertains to the depressing aspects in life. I'm absolutely in love with how you depicted this! Rain captures the emotion within a soul, and I think you explained that thoroughly well through this piece. Bravo! I'm in awe ^_^

this gets off track a few times, but the deep meaning is clear. mixing love of nature and people and the world around you into one work of only 130+ words. I love the rain aswell, and am very fond people as long as theyre nice. this is quite easy to relate to, so u earn top marks!

This is actually pretty interesting, in my mind.

It connects a few meanings into one poem, thought they aren't one hundred percent clear. Which is a good thing for a peom, because poems aren't supposed to be clear! There's a mixture of what things you love, the people you love, and another essence that I couldn't distinguish.

I love the rain, too, though. It's such a peaceful thing when trying to fall asleep. When it rains when I'm in bed, I always feel so warm and safe and comfy. It's awesome. I especially like thunder storms.

Great job with this poem. :)
