Raindrops Poem by Javier Falcon

I stand by this palm reminiscing,
as the rain drenches my body,
and my mind floods with memories.

I look up and the rain drops freefall,
they drip off my cheek as I smile,
each one so beautiful and so similar.

Having their own differences within,
holding hidden beauty waiting to be let loose,
as all the girls I have met through my life.

Even so, one calls my attention,
the one which follows its own path,
reminding me ever so much of you.

The one and only which hits me on the lips,
giving me that sweet taste none other can,
giving me the true happiness in life.

As they hit the ground and sing,
as this tone which soothes my soul,
releasing my mind in a torrent of joy.

As I see you walk out of the store,
heading toward me with gorgeous eyes,
smiling, lighting up everything I feel for you.

We stand together under this curtain of water,
so separate from the outside world,
as I hold your hands, and am wanting a kiss.
