Nette Onclaud Poet Rondeau

Notes About The Poem

Rainy Night Spills

When rainfall spills on crystal night, 
The damp brick halls and lamps' soft light
Make me slip-slide though I’m alone 
Into  the lanes of cobblestone, 
Allowing free movement  on flight.

How droplets tap while hours invite
A prance, a waltz as splash grips tight
This  child-like play  down to the bone
When rainfall spills.

How pewter cloudscape with its height
Gushes thrills of romp which excite
Hips’ wiggling sway ; an eve outshone  
By  pleasure  rare  I call my own...
Till moonglow blinks  oh drenched in white
When rainfall spills.

Rondeau
