Summer Rain..by Michael

Summer rain fell and washed the plants and flowers.

They grew and flourished beneath the warm sun as they

Slept through the evening hours under the moon and stars.

Birds and butterflies flapped their wings as they

Shook their legs dry once again which rejuvenated

Their souls. It poured down my face beyond the smile of my lips

And made me new once again. She stood beside me

At an outdoor wedding where no umbrellas were held.

It was there that we grew together and became one.

A cricket rubbed its legs together and a bird flaps its wings.

Some fireflies lit up the event as a few frogs croaked a song

That was heard only by the bride and groom.

    We paused from our indoor honeymoon suite

The next summer and went outside to enjoy and

Thank the summer rain...

There's a great deal of beautiful imagery in this poem! I really like the atmosphere you set up with this piece, it really has a "natural" feel to it(if that makes any sense). Fantastic poem sir, fantastic. :)

I love this :')
So simple and descriptive, but gets across that utter joy of being with the one you love and finally uniting with them. Very good write!
