Drenching Poems


After drenching biblical rainfall

After drenching biblical rainfall...
verdant green acres covered the planet of the apes
like a petticoat junction
donning barrel of skinny dipping monkeys.

Once drought stricken vast landscape
far as the eye could see
suddenly flush with promise
of budding new shoots
and ladders for vine companions
harkened prelapsarian Edenic prominence,
when mother nature resplendent
videre licet morning glory of primeval Earth
pregnant with multitudinous color pallette
regaled

Drenching In the Aurora

When the chill wind slaps
And the crunchy snowland claps,
I stealthily step into a winter land,
It's a wonder land

The frozen river gleefully welcomes me
Contorting their branches, the pine trees glee
Gliding through the river glassy
I reach the whiteland classy

Amid the foamy land
All alone I stand,
Counting the stars bound,
I wander around 

Suddenly A light flashes
O!!! O!!! O!!! It's

Premium MemberDrenching Me In Your Rain-

all pouring rain falls
falls down on me dispensing
your solid dew drops
~
 falling on me cold 
with tears from Angels crying
falling on me soaked
~
 and wet my body
 stain my body drenched and
in dew wetness spent

Drenching In the Rains

Lands around water sodden
Unsafe to be trodden
Landscape turned to green from brown
Watter logged and cold drawn
Roads brown and grey
Littered with water puddles
Under big trees animals huddles
We all looked forward to this rain
Its now a sort of a pain.....
Blue skies now overcast and grey
No sign of a single sun ray

I let this rain kiss me
Let all

Drenching

To find peace,
you break the coconut,
a ritual to dent
the dark night.

Amnesia disconnects 
your pronouns.
You do not remember 
your name.

A monkey or a fowl.
The existence was 
the same for your
unknown inheritance.

Want to collect the golden 
motif; from the 
old brick house, sans 
a real god, old brick house.

A straight line hangs 
from a roof, igniting the

Apologies Will Never Come From This Drenching Soulless Downpour

Whispers that were spoken were done to cause pain

Tears that were shed slowly became a stormy rain

Fear and anguish hovered and became a filmy dew

The deluge discussion lingered and was in the wind that blew

Heartache was there ending point to show an inner power

They will never ever recover from that volley shower 

A torrential flurry

This Northern Sky Is Drenching Us and I Fear I'Ve Forgotten My Name.

My name has been forgotten since last September, it's falling, decorating doorways and
digging splinters into the soles of my feet....


His skin crawls, I want to know where he thinks he's going, I wonder if he thinks he's
taking me...

I wonder if he thinks I'll follow.



There's no icing on the cake and the bed's not made yet,
