Notes About The Poem

We Will Walk Our Rains - Collab: James Fraser

WE WILL WALK OUR RAINS Welcome the falling rain with a rainbow smile dripping onto our face rippling even the sea. Flowers and bushes mottled wet along the aisle together in the pouring rain, running with glee! Without a care in the world the brackens spree and beneath the trees nesting birds hide in style, beholding this vista, we both are in agree: Welcome the falling rain with a rainbow smile! Soak and cold, hugging for warmth is worthwhile and so is hearing the rains' staccato percussion keys in a moment of stillness... Some cascading vile dripping onto our face rippling even the sea, some bring frowns, worse-- tears to our eyes but having a beloved through every miles may lighten dark skies. Hopefully, those guise flowers and bushes mottled wet along the aisle dry as the sun rises, wiping natures cries. Under the sun, under the rain: dance and be free! Breathe! Drink their essence... Release some sighs together in the pouring rain, running with glee! The rain and the sun: like a couple sustaining life~ garnishing both the earth with gregarious greens. May we be like them: partners holding no strife... The yins and yangs now smoothly hurdled in between welcome the falling rain... _______________________________________________________ *** Bracken/s~ these are ferns.

When the spirits are free to just be and hold each moment close, it is there among the smiles that love becomes carefree
