SAN FRANCISCO RAIN

[V1-Night 1]
Seventh floor windows, ocean burning gold,
The Gulf of the Farallones, secrets to unfold.
Two doors beside each other, laughter in surprise,
But I felt eternity staring through your eyes.

Out on the balcony, the stars began to spin,
I leaned in like remembering where we had once been.
But you pulled back startled, as if caught in the wind,
Afraid

Rain

RAIN
Drizzle
Soft Showers

Wet streets are gleaming
Footsteps splashing puddles
Cold drops kiss my face again

“Childhood storms dancing on my skin”

Premium MemberAn All Night Rain


An all-night rain: the smell
of sogged-down leaves and woods
stirs up feral urges: to tramp
the wetness like a snouted creature,
kicking up dead leaves, poking
deep for squirming things, sniffing
earthy scents for spongy roots,
gulping down mushrooms
with black grit, the bristly haired
skin taut and wet, until the belly
bloats and sags, generating heat
like a boiling cauldron.

Raindrops on roses sparkle.

Though they seem like tears

On those cloudy, rainy days. 

Roses have no fears.

Nature's gifts are rife.

Small raindrops fall and glisten,
 
Sparkling joy of life.

It Will Always Rain on Me

It will always rain on me in all seasons. 
Seasons jacketing me with dust, 
Dust mostly from the dry season to absorb my hope.

Hope fractured in different ways in time, 
Time unendingly discoloring my soul. 
Soul trying to resist by pleading for light.

Light that kills darkness but dies in startling grief. 
Grief that mostly engraves

pink petal’d-petrichor scent
brumous blossoms fold
dark rain falls from sunless skies
still, her garden’s gold
doused roses airing
as bright beam disperses clouds
poised beauty flaring

Raindrops on roses last night,
what a storm it blew.
My garden got a great bath,
looking clean and new.
Roses wanting sun,
their faces are shining up.
Rose garden is done.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A sky kiss on rose beauty,
long for bees in flight
to reach sumptuous nectar,
where rains blend with fright,
yet no sun to dry,
after many days of rain,
clouds still drape the sky.

climate change

    what comes tomorrow
    leaves some elements of doubt
    earths rain wind and fire
    seems to dominate the skies
    save for our eternal light

    arctics melting ice
    overflowing tropic isles
    oceans
