Memories of the joy of walking in the rain

The Rain of ole

 

It was the days of past, that I chose to walk

the lengthy trails

that were painted by droplets

caught in a rain soaked pale.

 

Each exploding expansion

of warm churned mist

re-energized the sense of being

as it washed away, sealed and kissed.

 

Always playing that silly game

“dodging rain drops” in the pouring rain,

hopes to avoid,  drenching one’s clothes,

what a game, quite insane.

 

Staring at the droplet

crashing down on one’s face,

with thoughts to hide the mystic tears

flowing pass,  in hopes to erase

 

Through all the water that is pouring down

Still Desperately wait for the clashing sound

Concealing a masculine whimper

in the quiet’s of the wind

oh so cleaver, oh how profound…

 

Walking in the rain with one of rare beauty

was always wonderful, stimulating, and wild

courting each other, down the street

the memories are always beguiled

 

Never afraid to touch,

kiss

or love

with the magic

that was generated by

the wonders of above…

 

the therapeutic rain,

as it pours until it steams

immeasurable

from endless means.,,

 

So let the rain

encompass our souls;

whether day or night,

no longer shall one grow old

 

never fear what one does not have,

…dare to reminisce

To floating along the river

for once, for eternity, with the absence of a kiss

 

Oh how I miss the rain of ole…

I like the part about the silly game of dodging the rain drops. That was def the best part. But the whole poem is wonderful. I like it a whole freakin bunch!!!

"I hope to hide my mystic tears while I desperately wait for the thunder to crash to conceal my masculine whimpers of pain."

I love the "mystic tears"

This is a nice ode to one of the things most enjoyable in nature. A pleasure to read.

"my masculine whimpers of pain." - and bit of a oxymoron you got going on here :P dork lol

i liked this though. the story of the rain, and the images you had here, were great.
