Walk of Love

The dark clouds threatened rain in the late evening sky.
They decided to take an umbrella in order to stay dry.
Their happiness was evident on each others face.
As they eagerly tucked an arm around each others waist.
 
Their conversation was easy as they matched each others stride.
Their eyes lit with glee from the love they felt inside.
They smiled at each other as the summer rain began to fall.
No where on earth they rather be, a special glance said it all.
 
They stopped upon a bridge as lightening streaked the sky.
Thunder rumbling loudly made the girl hug tighter her guy.
The rain falling heavily now dancing in the river below.
They shared a tender kiss, neither afraid to let their feelings show.
 
The summer rainstorm suddenly ended as quickly as it began.
In time for an amazing sunset, the first shared by this woman and man.
A smiling mother nature must have thought what else could she bestow.
For in the sky a crescent moon appeared and a spectacular rainbow.
 
They both knew that this shared experience was a rare one indeed.
Both realizing their love is magical and that they better take heed.
To let a special love like theirs slip away would be such a crime.
For true love is precious and comes around only once in a lifetime.
 
`Let us forever continue this "Walk of Love".


*A true story

I'm so glad it is a true story, that was my hope from the first line and finding that out at the end made me inexplicably happy for them. Dominic.

Hey, lady. I think this is the only poem remaining of yours that I had not yet seen. Hurry and write some more!! This was very nice. You could even change "summer" to "spring" and use it in the spring rain contest (if they don't require a poem to be new!) Luv, Andrea

Ah, the walk of love. I find this allegorical. It says to me to embrace all the good that comes with every part of life. Thanks for the thought. I find that it is not hard to find beauty in nature. Love, on the other hand is a bit complicated!
