This poem made me think of how we as individuals often think of our set of problems/circumstances as unique. I believe it was the Buddha who remarked that all people suffer, and if you look closely, there may be someone like you. Perhaps I read zen into this piece, but that’s what I thought. And for me, rain symbolizes a sort of cleaning, new beginning, so I immediately begin making associations when I see it in a poem.
Thx for sharing!
