the rain pitter-patters outside my window it has been raining forever it seems making the night wonderfully intimate this soft, relentless rain as I sit here I watch her outside in the rain wearing a simple dress saturated with the rain glued to her skin clinging, and outlined for my eyes only she leans her head back, laughing her hair comes undone she shakes it like a wild woman and wild woman she is with me my woman as wild as she wants to be we have this rapport that rain, snow, earthquakes cannot still our hearts stop the love we share for the other I sit inside watching her very personal performance arms outstretched looking straight at my window laughing forever laughing whirls around stops dancing holds her arms out toward me begins to walk toward the window I open it as if on command reaching through it I lift her wet, clinging body into my arms into my love ©December 6, 2011 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |
