And the lake asked the rain, Why do you overwhelm with your love over and over again? The rain broke for a while for a thought, and came back with more showers as the eternal play of love. Rain said I came from distant land and oceans to meet you, Lake said I have been waiting forever for you. Rain said I am the true lover, I dissipate and merge in you, Lake said Thank you rain, I am the reservoir of love, I keep your love and share it with others who want it. Rain said I am glorious, come with thundering dark to fluffy soothing clouds, I provide the world with the nectar of life, Lake said I am still and adore the beautiful mountain and blue skies, I provide heaven to all forms of aquatic lives. Rain said even when I am breaking away, I bring the beautiful rainbow, I provide a bridge from land to heavens for thoughts to ponder, Lake said I have overcome the emotions of joyful sunny days and dark gloomy night, I only feel happy when I am desired by somebody.

Enjoyed the personification and the dialogue technique you employed. Doing so made your poem more personable. Beyond the words were profound hidden meanings and messages like: Rain said I am the true lover, I dissipate and merge in you, Lake said Thank you rain, I am the reservoir of love, I keep your love and share it with others who want it. Your words so beautifully illustrate the relationship we humans can have with one another. Outstanding. I do enjoy your poetic style and voice.
