Learning To Dance In The Rain Poem by T.James Becker

Blood pulsing in my veins as your body is crushed against me
Steam rises from our heated bodies as the cool rain drenches us
My arms around your waist my eyes locked on your reflection
Moving to the rhythm of the rain and the music of our hearts

The wind whispers in the trees a song of sweet seduction
Perfumed fragrance of flowers scent the air with a touch of musk
Nature’s orchestra playing softly as we step and sway as one
Locked in embrace, lost in love, dancing, unaware of the cold

The moon partially hidden by clouds peeks out to watch
Winking its approval of the romantic scene before it
Brushing the hair from her face, I lean in for a much-wanted kiss
Our lips meet; kiss accepted and returned in the heat passion

The rain stopped and the clouds part, stars illuminate the sky
Air fresh and clean, still we danced oblivious to our surroundings
Learning to dance in the rain holding tight to our tender love
