Please don’t stop the rain—it makes
her shimmer
With pure sparkling water drops
kissing her
With sparkles of light rolling down
her hair
like diamond dust-laden clouds
in the air
A sudden flash from her eyes is
thrown
Like the ray that streams from the
moonstone
Oh, young precious pearl the rain days
come
With strings of crystal chiming
rhythmic hums
And her standing there soaked
dripping rain
In silence and smiling innocently
rain come again

Entirely possible to have too much of a good thing, you know - as many folks on the East Coast of Australia can testify.
Never mind - in a different context, a different time, I could conceivably have enjoyed your piece.
Thank you for the dose of reality. This is a poem about a young girl enjoying a day of rain in front of her house. I live in a country where the threat of rain and hurricanes is a yearly matter. Remember Hurricane Maria how it devasted my island of Puerto Rico. So, I wrote this poem as a snapshot of a few hours under the rain. Have you done that?
Have I written a poem about rain?...... Not yet...I'll wait until I can view it with some perspective, .....
Have a good one.
Super words rr.

Thank you, Andy, for your comment. This is a poem about a time when my wife was a young girl in Puerto Rico enjoying a rainy day, not about a storm like Hurricane Maria devastating Puerto Rico. The poem is free verse and lyrical to highlight the enjoyment of the rain when you're young.
'Oh, young precious pearl
the rain days come
With strings of crystal chiming
rhythmic hums'..
beautifully worded
thanks for sharing, a lovely read
Thank you, Mek for reading my poem and commenting. I appreciate your words of encouragement.
I love this beautiful, lyrical poem! Since I was a child I've loved rainy days; watching it, hearing it, sometimes going for a walk in it. Thank you for this special piece.
Bella thank you for reading my poem. This poem is the inspiration for rainy days when my wife enjoyed being out getting wet as a young girl. Thank you!
Wonderful rrodriguez! Such visual verses 🙂 This is a pleasure to read. Thanks for mentioning it.
