Betty #2

Honest

I awoke very early,

     with such nice thoughts.

As I turned to see your face...

     You were gone.

I sat up,

     it was raining, 

          very little light.

Through the window, 

     I could see your car,

          but you were gone.

As I walked through the house,

     I saw no sign.

Out the back door...

     I saw you,

          in the side yard,

               slowly dancing,

                    splashing in the rain.

Your dress,

     soaking wet.

Your hair,

     soaking wet.

I watched,

     I smiled.

You saw me,

     you smiled.

I held you... 

     we danced...

          I laughed...

               you cried.

                    We feel in love.

I think of you,

     in the Spring,

          when it rains.
