Raindrops
by Lady Adellandra Dratianos
Age Group: Adult
You are like Raindrops,
Refreshing to the garden flowers
And quenching my thirst and desires.
You wet my creativity,
Refresh my mind,
Extend my curiosities
To the extreme,
-- Quenching my thirst for
Love and attention.
You make my ultimate fantasies
Seem real
Enough to be written,
Yet fantastic
Enough to be kept secret.
I wish you would fulfill my desire,
Make me rush to you
Like a river from a recent shower,
Flowing from one end to the next!
I remember it was raining
When we first met at the
Special Olympics.
The drizzle made me s-h-i-v-e-r . . .
. . . wishing for a WARM embrace.
I could sense your trepidation of me.
You were nervous
Like a training runner
Anticipating his competition by a glance.
You didn't want to speak
When you saw me at the concession stand.
Instead,
I did it for you, my cheeks
Reddening from the chill
In the air.
As the day wore on, the football field
Emptied of its tired spectators.
For the high-school students,
The excitement was over and
Life goes on.
For us, we continued our conversation in the
Parking lot. I looked up to you as
A child looks up to an older brother,
Or a daughter looks up to her father.
Half-expecting you to sweep me off my feet in a
Romantic haze, you instead
Pointed me to the realities of love and life.
My head was in the clouds,
But you showed me the light.
I wish we were as innocent as we were
Back then, so we could
Start over like the fresh scent of a rain
Brings hope of tomorrow
To a thirsty rose.
