Rain Dancer

I recall a time not long ago,
a summer evening hand in hand.
came gentle rain to merely entertain,
as the heavens would have planned.

That night belonged to only us,
kicking off your shoes with haste.
like a barefoot queen in a movie scene,
I still remember that raindrop taste. 

As you danced I simply watched,
that blue crayon you would steal.
my heart in flames from your games,
never thinking once it was ever real. 

Your legacy continues on my dear,
soaked to the bone but still you smile.
there were days I would think of ways
to make it rain for you to stay awhile.

My worries were a thing of the past,
somehow I knew the fairy tale would end.
innocent nights and those friday night lights,
I forever wished that I could extend. 

So whenever a storm grows near,
memories of your dancing comes to mind.
rain still descends from heaven my friend,
your figure and a rainbow forever entwined.
