Designated Rain

Those designated raindrops the sky must have saved for two I kissed you in the daisy field the rain soaked us through and through Together we ran for shelter moving quickly to the barn I was thankful for those raindrops as we hastened arm in arm Sure the sky had coaxed us to pleasure it opened the door The sweet smell of hay around us made me want you more and more Those designated raindrops pounded loudly on ancient wood We removed all our wet clothing I said we shouldn’t you said we should As I gazed upon your beauty my true passion became proof Designated rain brought us together Tap, tap, tapping on the roof. Thanks to Elsa Rosee, her title “Designated Raindrops” inspired this piece.

Such joy sings in the heart when reading this wonderful write. I love the content Richard, such lovely images painted by your words. Have a wonderful Thursday. Blessings....Mike. A Fav
