I Love To Walk In The Rain Poem by Seema Jayaraman

I love to walk in the rain
When the skies come down
Copiously
lavishing love
Wrapping the earth
In a shrug of unending embrace

I love to walk in the rain
When the clouds are so low
It's like walking through heavens doors
Talking in deep swigs of
An invisible angels misty whispers
Every breath deeply invigorated

I love to walk in the rain
When the skies have retreated
Wearing a washed out blue
far above
All spent yet replete
after a torrid roll on Earth

I love to walk in the rain
When it comes down in torrents
Sky rivers enveloping Earth so
And as I walk into the upended streams
drenched to my bones
My skin melds the rivulets
Into a watery song

I love to walk in the softest of rains
When leads me into mellow dreams
Of a world made of smudged teal lines
And the horizon having imploded
Welds itself into a watery earth
And It's only the skies for the eyes

But best of all
I love to walk in the rain
When it is at its finest fall
Almost like a gossamer web
It wafts, undulates and shimmers in the cool air
Like a puff of baby's sweet breath

As I walk on with my face tilted
Into the soft invisible aqua skies
