To Be Like the Rain

I would love for you,
To be like the rain,
Warm, damp, and kind,
The rain, you sing,
So resolutely and tender,
The rain,
Your shimmering body,
Dances through,
Warms,
And brightens,
The rain,
That cools and soothes,
The sultry vistas and gardens,

I would love for you,
To be like the rain,
Its tender and warm sighing,
Reminiscent,
Of nightingale wings,
And wanderlust,
Sonatas,

And your love,
Is like the rain,
Just as sweet,
As its honey,
Lovely as evenings,
Warm as lit candles,

Lovely lady,
Your soul is like the rain,
That kisses, nurtures,
And beautifies,
All the earthworn gardens,

I would love for you,
To be like the rain,
As sweet, warm, and damp,
Soothing the leaves,
And iris petals,
Soothing the pain,
With your midnight,
and evening love
Reynaldo Casison

My favorite line starts "Of nightingale wings.." of sonnets. So lovely. You are talented.
