A WALK IN THE RAIN

A WALK IN THE RAIN

A Poem by Betty Hermelee
"

LOST LOVE

"

A WALK IN THE RAIN

 

I failed to impede you this time

we shared such wholeness

yet, you shunted me

we preserved all the elements

you and I lit the stars

crossed the waves

winked at the moon

set the sun on fire

ours was a keeper

or so I deemed

you packed your bags

and stepped out in the pouring rain

on a foggy morn

as I granted your exit

My eyes welled up with mixed salty tears

 

Now I am alone to wonder why

where have you gone?

I truly desire your being

your flesh, your green eyes, your caress

will you think of me sometimes?

I will scribble you a note if you do the same

where will I find comfort?

since you left me

just when I needed you most

This was relatable and flowed well. Overall, I really liked it but it slapped me in my logic with the rain pouring and it was foggy. I know this can happen, especially on hilly terrain, but the line caught me off guard enough so I had to stop and re-read those two lines over, making sure I didn't read it wrong. Once I knew that I didn't, I re-read the whole thing and it flowed without stopping. --- Thanks for a pleasant read. And might I offer some sound advice from the past? Stay clear of those with green eyes. :)

dear Betty... A walk in the Rain is a lonely time
when someone has silently left... Wishing you a
Chance at Happiness and the Caress of a worthy
Partner... perhaps you will meet "Blue Eyes crying in the Rain",
and together you can plant a Garden of ever-blooming refrains.
tenderly, Pat

I truly desire your being

will you think of me sometimes?
Oh wow ..this is a poignant piece
I can feel the wanton emotions
the in depth need of longing
for this lost love who walked out
on that rainy day

so we'll penned.
