A half circling moon
and the sobriety
of circumstance
leave us in longing

over the edge
of the sill,
rain makes love
to the windows

while I'm craving
your rhythms
in a storm painted
rhapsody, where
you'd mold me
with contortions
in calypso's ripe
colors

and the cirrus
clouds blooming
two on a torniquet
knocking hard
on the shutters

while I'm lonesome
for flowers

and the willows
are wilding

You are a love goddess! There is no doubt about that!

"the sobriety

leave us in longing"

~ I understand those lines only too well!

"while I'm craving
your rhythms
in a storm painted
rhapsody, where
you'd mold me
with contortions
in calypso's ripe
colors"

Yours is a style unique to you alone and your words are not only perfect in flow, but the the images can be felt when reading.  The caress of rain on the windows is one that can mesmerize and you were flawless in it's representation.  Excellent write.
