Soaked by the rain
Of your tantalizing words
Floating in the air
Drenching wet kisses
On my lips, all over me
Your breath in each drop
Little did I know
The rain had become a flood
So strong the allure
Deceptive drizzle
Driven by tumescent winds
Pelting everywhere
The taste of new rain
Freshly fallen, final gush
A verse now complete
Until the next rainโฆ
Lovely! A rain romance or romancing the rain – it works either way! And an equally lovely image, to boot! Is it raining there, too? (we have the monsoons here)

Hey, I’m a poet, I can imagine the rain. It’s a good metaphor for many things๐ No we don’t have rain in Winter just frost. Yeah – I’ve seen and heard about some really heavy rain in Bangladesh? is it less severe your end?
I’m reading your rant btw

In Bangladesh, sadly it rained bullets and now tears, dear Chev… Here in Bombay, it’s been raining away; it’ll be like this till Sept. Hope your Sunday is good!

Yes, I saw that, no wonder your write up. It’s not a safe world is it? I vacillate between my spirit to contribute to change and stop at controlling the things I can. Today is what I call a pyjama day – just want to roll over and go back to sleep ๐ Enjoy the rain – I’m sure it’s a relief from the heat.

It was actually a repost of something I’d written after a previous massacre somewhere. I’m losing track, there’s a new incident every other day. I feel sad, angry, helpless…aargh, forget it!
Pyjama Day sounds nice ๐

I am going with the metaphor , although am not sure the image that these lines conjure in my mind are those that you intended to , but am letting my naughty mind take a few liberties ๐

Sweetheart, you just go with the flow wherever the rain takes you. I think the image of the rain falling – especially this one is very appealing. But you would know that I love playing with words. So naturally, you would see the layers and glad you did ๐

Thank you for the visit Joan. Always so delightful to receive your comments. It is always lovely to have rain straight after you’ve planted flowers. We won’t have rain until October but I always think rain helps clear up one’s thinking. Enjoy the rest of your day๐

Ok, so I am supposed to be responding to a comment on my blog but I had to read your new posts! How can I help myself?
I really love this one and that is saying something because I don’t typically like rain–but…..this kind of rain—I know a little something about this! LOL!
Always beautiful, always!
