Raindrops

Has there been any relief to the heat where you live? - Speaks Volumes

W'en it is raining here
It brings so much joy
First raindrops vanish
Into the parched earth
Young bird wonders
At the gentle shower
This is her first rain ever.

Stag party of the Sun
Is over now, a young 
Flower girl has thrown
A gentle shower down 
I hear dearest bride, Rain,
Laughing with her friends
Somewhere in the ocean

I wait, we all wait
For her to arrive
With her longest train
It is worth the wait
To watch the now shy, 
Well - behaved groom smile.
W'en, rain is joy here, we all smile.

That is lovely my sweet friend. The thought that is in every line is delightful. From the baby bird to the Wedding procession, its really magic. I have never seen rain depicted so imaginatively. You have a real talent. I haven't been reading much lately. In the next week I will spend time reading more, and commenting. Thank you my sweet friend.
