Kiss the Rain

Droplets of rain fall on Earth, making everything to come to Life before my eyes! Trees sway from left to right with joy! The ground smells of fertility once more! The air smells of rejuvenation around me like before! Rivers gain strength and eagerly flow downwards to become waterfalls! Opening my mouth wide, I taste blessings in the form of pure droplets of water! Once more Mother Earth kisses the rain!

very beautiful way to do the contest. I like the brevity of this one and how well it flows.

Swaying trees and opening mouths for a taste of the droplets really set the image. personally I would have "Once more mother earth is smothered with kisses of rain" but who am I? You can't absolutely please everybody, right? I still like the imagery.

Thanks Karl!I really like your honest reaction. That's what makes us all poets! I like experimenting poetry even with abstract kind of art and metaphorical language. Thanks again! ;)
