Quatrain Trial

You came like rain I waited since twilight;
How would I deeply say with tenderness?
the way you filled my life with cool delight,
Like a touch of raindrops in the wilderness.

You gaze like ivory clouds at noontime;
How would I deeply say with so much glee?
the way you touch my heart with love sublime,
like a kiss of cloud's silhouette in me.

You smile like crescent moon in summer nights,
How would I deeply say with hopeful heart?
the way you soothe my soul in soaring heights 
like a soft moonglow that shall not depart.

You are an iceberg poet. There is much depth beneath the words that grace the surface.

This has a distinct Chinese poetic flavour to it all; you might enjoy reading up on both Japanese and Chinese poetry formats...it might well suit your particular style of writing I do very much think. Welcome to the "Soup", JCB Burl! :) john
