I love the rain
The drops of affection
That close my eyes in the warm, loving light of dawn

I love the rain
When it gives me a little shiver
As desire flicks my bare skin

When the rain pours into my heart
It brightens my gloomy thoughts
The rain is generous with love
Shining through the darkness of drought

I love the rain
Like the purity of a kiss that brings me to my knees
The rain takes me higher to infinity
And brings back my childhood memories

When the rain follows the scent of rose on the wind
When the ray of a rainbow settles onto the mountain peak
It evokes giggles from happy days

The rain reminds me
Of my mother’s inspiring smile
Her pearly white teeth like a ray of sunshine

I love the rain
When the night dew is on my lips
When the moonlight quivers with emotion
I breathe and whisper softly
Words of love into the rain
