Kiss the Rain

Time off from the chaotic rhythm of the office
Exhausted from a long day’s work
Never mind, for tomorrow is a chance to peep
In the blue haze of early morning

Another day, another chance
Of a wishful thinking of the seventh heaven
That a Godsend may soon fall to earth in drops
To break the silence of the morning

I need the rain to accompany me
And lull me into a deep therapeutic easiness
Unbosoming the thoughts of turning back time
Between playful stomping and dancing on water puddles

The cloud drifted on to reveal a blinding cloudburst
The first sign of a light drizzle gave hope
Therefore, I looked upward to the gossamer layers of clouds
As railing rains trickle down my face
I opened my parched lips and closed my eyes to kiss the rain

    Noel, I was reading this one again. it's so nice! I am thinking that one word you use is probably puddles. when you say water piles. Do you know puddles? I am sure that is what you mean!!

    Hello Noel, a fondness against the aqua waters, I love the way you poem escorted me into the calmness healing surrender of a sweet kiss towards the rain... always~ LINDA
