RAINDANCE

Naked feet on naked grass

Naked rain on naked flowers

Naked moonlight shimmering bright

Like little halos kissing the night.

 

We danced little foxtrots and jaunty jives

We did a little waltz in star kissed climes

I held her tight in my arms so close

Her breath sweeter than the cherished rose.

 

She sang to me a Spanish ballad

And fluttering her eyelids said she

“ Love me like ‘tis the day of reckoning

The woman in me is uninhibited and beckoning”.

 

Saying thus her eyelids she fluttered

Words of passion her breath muttered

And as we danced the night away

The heavens itself came to stay.

 

Her very motion was poetry alive

To touch the skies we needn’t strive

For the stars were anklets around her feet

And the rain a satin covering sheet.

 

It poured puppies and kittens

Cuddly things, all smitten

Cymbal like thunder did clap on high

The chorus of the ballad a soulful sigh.

 

The stars went out, the moon did hide

The rain swallowed by the abating tide

Dewdrops kissed the blades of grass

The never ending night came to pass.

 

I have with me her memories

And a lock of her beautiful hair

I needn’t towards rain clouds look

For her love reaches everywhere.
