Beneath the frayed clouds I laughed today They glided by in gray scale pouts quivering and threatening to cry any moment I thought of you Your voice and how it trickled down my spine like the slow rain that began to fleck against the windowpane those drops... I felt them connect Stirred up and rambling into a sinful parade of broad daydream scenes passing by me in leisure motorcade fashion I am lilting on a street corner at lunchtime scolding the grin inside for thinking such bad girl thoughts between the drops I took off my high heels and ran before it poured some more of you and me there weren't any umbrellas for sixty miles [This message has been edited by rwood (05-16-2002 11:01 PM).] |

  WOW!!! Ooohhhhhh...I love the surreal sensuality you fill in these words, sweet friend, you always write such fabulous visions unlike any other that always fall like raindrops upon all these pages with inspiration! (kiss on cheek) This is fabulous, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Regina, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

VERY cool - i have become a big fan here, telling the truth! quote:see? that's how you do it, i'm telling-ya! thought - do you have a specific reason for using hardly any punctuation? i look for that when i'm reading as a control for where you want me to pause, etc. C |

Regina...this is an absolutely amazing piece of rain... Stirred up and rambling into a sinful parade of broad daydream scenes passing by me in leisure motorcade fashion I really have to thank Mr.Squirrel for calling my attention to this one. I posted one about rain tonight also (it must be the weather) and he mentioned that there were 2 poems about rain posted in one night so I went to look for the other one and found this gem of yours...and I must admit....I am really jealous because yours is so much better than mine  ~rainy hugsLyra |

LOL very very cool Reggie..love your puddles of personification and imagery here..(and your bad girl thoughts between drops) How long can a girl be haunted by you ... |

Balladeer: Ulimate compliment..to have you there always..thank you so much!! Noah: You are such a smile blessing to me..love and hugs to you! Serenity: Not worthy! I can only hope to be so inspired as to connect and continue to write..to convey. Thanks so much poetess. Nancy: You! You write so lovely..always lovely and always with class..I really appreciate you. Blues: Your acceptance is art and friendship I am so grateful for. Thank you. bsquirrel: Other than sea sides, sun valleys, and sensual chocolate..I adore the rain! Thank you poet! Christopher: No one has ever asked! If you read me real slow..and imagine a thick southern accent..sort of like "sensual molasses"..the punctuation gets in the way. So I decided to cap all the beginnings and jiggle a little freely with my verse..because I write like I talk..only I do pronounce my words purrfectly and I am blessed that you asked. I hope my sparse punk u ation isn't a hindrance to you. Thank you poet. Lyra: Never better..we are omni-gatherum of art and conveyance..we are poetic and I must find yours now! Hugs poetess! Dark: Yes..I love the puddles..gotta love the puddles..I love the way you make rain. Thanks so much! Sunshine: I always enjoy you..You are just one fan dang tastic lady..Appreciate every word you leave me. Janet: Bring on the rain!..for sure! You are so great!! So glad you enjoyed this..Thanks a heap of slow rainy Sundays~grin. Sincerely, Reg |
