Reminiscing, "Rain on the Roof", taught on piano by my mother  Please stay, your pitter-patter makes me matter    I do not mind even if it takes you a few days   If you want you could last until midnight with only the moon and stars' rays    I am glad there is no need for a rain dance   In this tropical part of the world, you are taken for granted, not a glimpse nor a glance    I missed you in lands where you were shy, and stayed for just minutes   But here, if I ask, sometimes, you appear, sporadically, in pieces and bits   As long as you don't intensify into a storm  Then we'll be fine, and no remorse will form    Today is the final day of the year, indeed, you are a shower of blessings   May the new one — bring joy, love, and peace—as we exchange hugs and wonderful greetings!                                 photo credit: S.A.
