This poem gave me insight into my own writing. Two of my favorite characters are friends when they are very young, but a "season" of their lives comes when they grow into lovers as well. Your words are appropriate for the hesitant time when they gradually discover this. Your description of blue eyes and hazel eyes is even appropriate! But my take on the subject is prosaic; yours finds expression in insightful and well expressed poetry. Exquisite!

You are a wonderful writer and I know that you love to do it! To have your comments and insights from your own insights is very meaningful to me. I appreciate your pointing out the differences in how you feel that different people approach subjects of creativity from different directions.
I loved your review and I love being given modeling that I can think and ponder.
Thanks so much!

Out if the comfort zone is where we grow- sometimes we are ahead or behind others and not always on the same level both physically and spiritually- if we grow at the same speed then there’s s better understanding but then again what makes sense to me might be foreign to you- growth requires a new me or you - only thing we can be sure of is change- it comes sooner or later- we need to learn to accept and not fight it- all happens as it should- wonderfully written🌹

I loved your analysis in above review! I was just thinking that a quiet inner acceptance would be good in change but then sometimes we do it kicking and screaming. Ha, ha. Well nothing stays the same and we are precious human beings and all of us feel differently and respond differently at different times. Again it was great to hear from you.
Blessings,
Kathy

So right. Seasons of life do move and change. Better to flow then to become bogged down.
Nice to hear from you and enjoy your own individual thoughts on life and this poem. Thanks for reading.
With Appreciation,

"Will we rain together, you and I?
All ready our storm approaches.
I tremble and yield my heart beat to yours.
Do you feel the sun warming?"
Such a beautifully arousing love poem this truly is, Dear Kathy … you've definitely opened your feminine flood gates and lowered your inner veil herein this splendidly rendered piece.
Closing mental eyes, I opened my mind to breathe-in the tenderly captivating complexity of that which formed and swam out from your mind, heart, and soul into my own, as if the words had spoken solely unto me … and, I floated upon them, along with them, swept and carried through your wondrous, metaphorical journey of seasons' life, love, desires, wonders, cravings, openings, blossomings forth … undulating rhythms of sensations glowing, surging, caressing … one could well near write a living, breathing tome from effulgent streams of sweet consciousness spanning between us, up and down, across the page.
One cannot help becoming lost in You, Kathy, through the enthralling timbre and irresistible lure emanating from such engaging mental, emotional, spiritual arousals a'glow in your words … "Watch Me Rain", indeed … goodness! ⁓ Richard
(what a brilliant accompanying picture, too!)

You have a gift for looking deeply into a writing. It is refreshing to see this lovely attribute and thoughtful process of finding every bit of beauty possible. I was truly delighted by your report-review: a intricate and detailed summary. I don't know what else to say. Your ability to describe is wonderful!
Blessings,
Kathy
I love the idea of a relationship beginning as seeds in the darkness of the soil. Then the sprouting, then throwing off the tiny seed home in the dark. And I think the last two lines at the end are clever, positively looking forward, not back. This is a very inspiring and hope-full poem.

Staying in a place of strength for another does not come but by some pain and some work. Growth is always the blessed reward of steadfast commitment. I tried to show this aspect in my poem and gosh it's nice to have a nice review like yours! Thanks so much!
Blessings,
Kathy
I like your philosophical approach. You give your readers some much relevance to think about; and that is a good thing. The meaning of life, of love, of beauty, of faith and creativity, these are things we as writers and poets need to teach and inspire others about. Because I do believe in the divine, prophetic role of poets to be the people's voice for the voiceless.
WELL DONE

Thanks so much for your effort to share from the depths of your feelings: to interpret what you really think. It is a vulnerable experience to honestly share. I like it. Well I wish you inspiration and going after it aggressively even.

This soul is full of racing clouds. Will we rain together, you and I?
Every comparison made in this poem is beautiful. Your poems are a delight to read! I get to learn so much.

We people are nothing if we are stagnant. Growth is the best thing, dont'cha think? The seasons within nature show so much in the importance within time and growth. thank you for giving your great review!
Blessings,

Your author's note says it all.....Life and the seasons share a certain symbiotic relationship; the seasons come and go, all nature withers and rises, and we do the same as we journey through our lives.
I appreciate the self reflection and wisdom coursing throughout this write. As always, you look at the world around you with clear vision and a wondering mind.
Merry Christmas, Kathy. I hope you have a joyous festive season. Thank you for your visits to my page over the past year.

Don't we all have fun?! Reading and reflecting on the thoughts and feelings of one another? It is so nice! Well here we all are closer to another year in transition. I'm with you; it is great to have fellow souls who read our work throughout the year. Christmas is special and I am always sorry to see it pass but life is precious either way. Well, bye for now.
blessings,
Kathy
It's odd... when I read your poems, I have to take a breath and close my eyes after each stanza, so I can absorb all of the imagery. I certainly feel a storm brewing; perhaps the electricity that occurs on the verge of change? Maybe a new relationship or a new start in life? *2nd stanza* mmmm, the touch of a smile maybe, and the question, "are we ready?" holds anticipation as well as trepidation. Ugh, for sure, its always so touchy at the beginning, almost like I want to stay but will bolt at the first sign of trouble *3rd stanza* The delicacy of fresh blooms and buds against the violent torrent of steady growth... will they survive? *4th stanza* isolated against the world, caught in our own, completely submerged by the tidal of love and life, perhaps the feelings are so overwhelming that we need to withdraw ourselves to the safety within *5th stanza* twin souls, mirror reflections of each other, only knowing the difference between them by subtle changes in temperature and depth, moving in harmony once again... *6th stanza* here, is almost a question, "should we take on the world together?" it seems like they acknowledge that they are fledgling, yet there is that youthful boldness that yells loudly from the safety of shelter. *7th stanza* yearning to stretch, to turn faces up to the sky and breathe deeply, outstretching arms, maybe even flamboyantly making eye contact with anyone who dares. We are here and everyone can just eat their hearts out! *8th stanza* With the courage gained through perseverance, we ask "what's next?"
Kathy, well done. I always love your poetry. You take me on such pleasant journeys

Your thinking is just wonderful! It was just a joy to read your thoughtful and detailed review. It is a pleasure to be granted affirmation as you have given so freely. We all have lives which reflect so much and to be shown in your above words that you have found reassurance and commonality shows that you are paying attention in your life and wanting to always be on a pathway of refinement. You are very precious and I sure did love your review.
Thank you!
