How sad that the weather ruined both a beautiful picnic and some afternoon delight also, but there is a sense of acceptance of what is, rather than a frustration for what is not. Finely penned, with a lovely visual connection between the couple and Mother Nature. Excellent use of imagery and word choice. A very charming write! Thank you for sharing, Betty...

finding the perfect place in the perfect moment only to have clouds come and dampen the ardour, very frustrating but naked in the rain sounds very appealing also :))

The poem captures the tension and passion of a clandestine romance, highlighting the risks and rewards of forbidden love.
The use of personification, as seen in "Clouds reassure us" and "time to breathe in scents," adds a sense of intimacy and connection between the characters and their environment.
Love the title Betty. Nice imagery. Yes in spite of the sun it’s business as usual, the show must go on, be it romance in this case. And when it’s outside romance the sun is just a backdrop.
it is indeed a fine metaphor in visual imagery the sun encouraging young love juxtaposed to the bleak forrest with its thicket branches so difficult to overcome in order to get to open pasture, yep, let not those who seek dipserion from their throned of judgement thwart happiness through blossoming love...
There lingers here a fear of interruption and the inability to complete fulfillment. Beautiful imagery lines this poem. Very nicely done Betty. Love the description of nature and its beauty.

Very thoughtful review Pete, always love all your nuances🌷warmly, B
My love of poetry results from my love of art. As a painter I am able to express myself on a canvas. As a poet my words come from my heart, my moods, sometimes sad, mostly upbeat. I like to use vivid .. more..
