Raindrops

You cool my being when it's catastrophically sad. When you just touch my skin, it's my mind that goes gladly mad. The rhythm of classic music fills your pitter-patter Between you and the wind, what exactly is the chatter? My heart, like a red rose, blooms. The aroma of love spreads. From within, as a thick speck of summer dust, ego shreds Is there, between you and the earth, a passionate debate? Joy, like new sprouts, from my interiors rejuvenates. Do you mirror my sadness? You erased my tears, I know. Don't you know, that it's out of inner pain that the tears blow? Lightning peeps from clouds like a shy girl behind her mother. Each bubble in troubled waters tries to smash the other. I feel cleansing, like freshness of physique after a bath. Is the thunder raising its voice a sign of divine wrath? Zeus, Oya, Indra, and Hyades dance in euphoria. There's, on earth, a rhyme and chime of Amen Alleluia.

So cool! Love the references to Greek mythology which is steeped in nature... and the personifications you've made are delightful! I especially like imagining lightning as a meek, shy girl! Lightning gets a bad rap as being angry and wrathful so that's very unique idea! Xo

Dear Susan, don't mean to barge in here on your conversation with Chris, but... well, OK, I do mean to... but I apologize lol. Just wanted to say we share the same fav line! So different to imagine lightning as shy and meek when it's always judged as angry loud etc... see you soon! Xo

Beautiful rhyming poem, Dear Christuraj! Love all the lines, especially this one "The rhythm of classic music fills your pitter-patter Between you and the wind, what exactly is the chatter?"
