Yesterday's Rain

Memories

 

                        You knew me by heart

                                                            and I loved you first

 

                        You touched me in the dark

                                    no sun,

                                                 moon,

                                                            nor starlight was needed

                        your eyes were covered with my words

                        my dreams with your fantasy

                        on a pillow, scented with desire

                        you found the place

                                                where winds rise

                                   and flowers burn…

 

                        Your love rained upon me

                                                silk to my skin

                        I caught every raindrop

                                    selfishly

                                                quenching my thirst

             

                        Touch me...

                                                like yesterday’s rain

                        and let the winds stir

                        as we recite each other’s poetry

                        and I will feel you

                        deep in my soul as you move me

 

                        I am free

                        I am a goddess

                        I run through a garden of flowers

                                    passion blooming grace

                        and you will remember…

 

                        You knew me by heart

                                                             and I loved you first

allow me to add my praise to all the others for this poem, Julie. It's remarkable for its sensual feel and romantic flow. And then there is this: "Touch me... like yesterday's rain", 'sigh'!!!

Oh my heart, I enjoyed reading this very romantic poem. The picture goes well with the title and yours words.. A very sweet poem. I loved the very first 2 lines and the last set. It says so much in just a few lines.

Stunning words, love that has vitality and sincerity as if the one and only touch and feel of it. Beautiful and - perhaps because rain suggests tears of joy and purity?

'Touch me... like yesterday’s rain - and let the winds stir - as we recite each other’s poetry - and I will feel you deep in my soul as you move me '
