Logan Brosemer's "Rainy days" begins as a cozy celebration of a wet morning. The speaker wakes to cool, light air and the smell of water, and imagines the perfect rainy day: sweatshirts, couches, movies, home-cooked food, and nowhere to be. The mood is gentle and relaxed.
Then the poem turns. The speaker admits that rain days always bring back time spent with "her," cuddling and snacking together. The line "Rainy days were so much better with you" makes the loss plain. Now the days "just drift by," and memories "float through the air," as if they were as weightless and unavoidable as the weather itself.
The repeated "Drip drip drop" at the start and end acts like a frame, and its meaning shifts. At first it sounds soothing. By the end it feels more like the slow, steady sound of someone waiting and remembering. The poem leaves us with quiet, wistful sadness rather than anger or despair.
