A SURPRISE

A SURPRISE

BY SADDAM HUSEN

 

Evening time;

Tea time with her,

Suddenly rain interrupted

Small drops start falling from sky

It was bonus for her

She likes rain very much

She looked at me as I was denied

But I know it very well.

 

I murmur softly in her ear;

‘It is for you, go for it.’

 

She happily ran out

First she took some drops on her palm

 Then she felt it on her face

With close eyes; she was making them special

Drops were rolling down slowly

Started from her face then neck, then down and down.

 

But it was surprise

When she looked other place

All the other court-road was dried.

‘It is for you, go for it.’

A dreamy scene here with touches of joy.
I would love to see you add to this--maybe more emotion and reaction to the moment.
It is over too soon for me.
your first stanza is a perfect start to more.
The second builds the intrigue to more to come.
I think the ending stanza is where I want more intensity.

Of course dear, Last was which I thinking also too but I was in hurry for post it (smile).... Thanks for reading. I'll update soon, can you please help me for making it?

I know the feeling--posting is fun--everyone wants to do it rapidly!
Your first stanza flow well, I like the second one with the quote, in the third one--Just my suggestion--put more feeling and emotion with the material already there(you may cut some)---but show us her feelings and emotions in reference to your subject(rain-why is it a gift to her?)
You can also add some of it in your ending stanza, and build on your title.
I hope this helps with your revision process.
:) cheers to you!

Thank you so much dear for your valuable suggestions, I must rethink the last stanza. Thank you dear, here I'm going to look at that. Keep eyes on my write, that will increase my skills.
