It's Reigning Poets

Rain made no apologies to sun
as it satiated a whetted appetite,
opined it was the right of nature
unconditionally given dispensation
by Mother Earth's nurturing favor
of life-giving creative indulgences,
whereon flower's blooming accolades
truly know the opulence of its essence,
whilst aroused poet's inspired reveries
ever shine 'neath abundant cloudbursts


 Anyone who thinks that sunshine is pure happiness,
 has never danced in the rain. -- unknown

Daniel Turner Date: 10/26/2016 3:23:00 PM I'd venture to bet, more poems are written about the rain than the sun. Beautifully written, as always, Paloma:) Login to Reply

Freddie Robinson Jr. Date: 10/26/2016 2:30:00 PM Beautiful poem, Paloma. Beautifully expressed. Lush and verdant language. I love it, I love it a lot. Great write. Btw, I did the final rewrite of "Seen This Movie Before." Let me know what you think, whenever you get a chance. I value your opinion greatly. Love always to you.

Chris Green Date: 10/26/2016 1:54:00 PM I really love this one because dancing in the rain, kissing beneath an umbrella is so romantic to me. I especially love the first line without using “the”. I sometimes wish I wasn’t such a freaking romantic and more of an ass, because if I were, I wouldn’t sit here right now tearing up thinking about an encounter like this. You sure do know how to pull on the heartstrings. Login to Reply
