In Falling Rain

In hot sultry heat of afternoon electric charge in the air does grow every touch with tingles filled tension swelling growing is soft breeze whispers through pressing cloth again swelling curves moisture clinging showing all soft warm drops begin to fall lush full redness of cherries ripe pressed with promise against the lips filled with moisture to set free in the promise of coming storm gentle touches placed upon flesh that trembles still contained growing tension of coming storm flashes of lightning illuminating all slowly gently do they fall growing moisture warm and free quicker now with growing force till full crashing of raging storm lightning flashes and thunder roars slowing now the rain does fade full wet drops slowly now till only warm mist remains gentle breeze does clear the clouds soft light does fall on everything revealing that which was not known that now may grow after storm

Hello William Kofoed, I enjoyed this poem. I like poems about the rain. When it rains I find it relaxing to sleep. Enjoy your day my friend. Stay safe and stay well. Enjoy your day my friend.
