This is a great poem. I love it dearly. It made me think about the one I loved and lost recently, so maybe that's why it's struck me in the heart, but either way, thank you for this masterpiece.
The only thing I have to say is that maybe you should use more commas / periods in it to make it easier to read, but it might be a stylistic choice to not.
Again, thank you. I'd make a badge for you if I had more GPs.
I particularly like the latter fourth, and the ending two lines.
I love this poem. I love the rain, and this captures the essence of it very well! Good job. There's a couple minor things I have to say, however:
"its is still there and hidden away," should probably just be "it is still there and hidden away,"
"it fills the gutters and the streets with life
it washes away the pain of life and the strife," Using "life" twice this quickly doesn't sound very good. Try replacing that word or reworking this part of the poem to only use it once!
Short and sweet. Good twist to Lucy not being a person, but a dog.
However, there's a few errors. The quotation marks weren't closed, and the word luxuriating doesn't fit where you put it. It'd also flow better if you removed "were" from the first sentence.
