Analysis of Raining Tears



Many people die and go to Heaven
They are happy
But they miss their loved ones.
When I look out my window
I see the rain drizzle, pour and stop.
People in Heaven cry for their loved ones
Their tears are the rain coming down.
Loved ones will join the people in Heaven
And they shall cry for their loved ones.
Sitting by my window pane
I see the rain come down.
I look to see if my father cries for me
Because I will one day join him.
I will cry for my loved ones.
The chain goes on...
Raining Tears.

In loving memory: Dedicated to my wonderful father, Rokan U. Ahmed, who meant more than anything to me, who inspired me to believe in who I am, what I stand for, and to dream my dreams forever. I thank him with my love, my tears, and of course, my heart.
 -Rehana F. Ahmed
