This is for a project at school about the Romantic Period of American Literature. We had to write something that looked like it could've come from the Romantic Period. I know it's not that great, but it's about nature, so I guess it works. Well, technically it's about rain, but rain's nature, so whatever.

Drops of water fell today
They fell from the sky
And hit the earth with
A light sound

The sound the drops made
Wasn’t loud at all
It echoed through the sunless
Day unheard by anyone but the trees

With the drops came
A soft howl from the sky
The music blew quietly
Around the rain

The chilled wind swept
Around the trees
Embracing with cold,
Numbing with passion

A white atmosphere
Slowly dimmed to darkness;
The soft tears of the sky
Remained to still the night

Reviews would be nice. :)
