Cloudburst

The swell of cloudburst pours its showers; gently tapping on night’s dewy aisle while raindrops spill like pearly dots, along a lush garden where ringlets flit. O but that smile enthralls dusk’s approach, upon her glow bridal buds enhance as drizzles change hues in sky’s finery, her gushes bearing gushes from corners of eyes. A mellow dance of sleet frolics with the breeze *while the rain kisses her cheeks her essence,* this nearness which consumes wisp of air. ............. 6/8/2016 ika-labing-tatlo (13th): Rain, Rain come my way binibining P.iNk’s Contest *habang humahalik ang ulan sa kanyang mga pisngi, sa kanyang kababaihang makabuluhan*

June showers indeed! Big congrats to you nette for your wedding joy write! You put in quite a lot of vivid imagery here and I can imagine this blissful couple on their special day. Plus I enjoyed the idea of rain kissing the bride's cheeks. And I was happy to see the Filipino words at the bottom, yay for that! Thanks for entering my contest :)!

"I'm singin in the rain." The old Gene Kelly flic. So who can dislike rain under these circumstances? Enjoyed. Love, daver

Good interpretation, good intent, the metaphores sharp as tacks, visually stunning yet leans towards over stimulation of poetic device, too many great lines fighting for dominance ....good luck ...Ian
