You're the Right Kind of Rain

Pluvia

Drops that linger in the air 

Like a sweet osculum blown from perfect lips. 

What kind of rain are you?

Fat Chubby little raindrops?  You get me all worked up and soaking wet

A soft, gentle, misty rain? It cools me off just enough.

Slow and steady light rain? It gets me wet in all the right places 

provided I stay in it.

Or are you the kind of pluvia that I want to dance and sing and play in?

You're a downpore in July and a monsoon in December

You're acid rain when you're angry 

A rejuvenating rain when you're happy.

You're a tumultuous rain in an angry see when you're in love

I'm thrown about to and fro like the flotsam and jetsam being cast back to the beach

You washed up into my life and before I knew it I was caught up in your storm.

You're the kind of rain that beats down the jungle

You're the kind of rain that splashes up from the water below 

You're the rain that brings life to valley after a drought.

What kind of rain are you? Exactly the kind I need and the only rain I want.

Water always makes for a great metaphor. I have to say I have not seen it done quite like this. Very creative.

Beautiful writing. I enjoy poems that are extended analogies like this. Wonderful imagination.

Oh sweet Pluvia, drown me in thy sacred desire, immerse me in your love, in drops of ecstasy enfold me into the streams of your heart.

One of your best, realm. You are a natural born writer.

[Enigma]

Amazing use of the metaphor. Loved it. The title just inspired me for a piece. :)

[KATHY SUE SILLS]

Love the imagery, so creative!

[Joshua]

Well, great job here. I love the imagery you've created with this poem and the way that the words flow and meld together. The repetition in several of the lines (15-18) helps the poetry work even better. Great work overall.

I did notice that there was a spelling error ("You're a downpour in July") but not that big of a deal.
