Love In The Rain

A sweet poetry collection whose themes border on love, the beauty of nature, religion and many other interesting facets of life. They are real-feel-good poems which form a wonderful gift for your loved one, your family and friends. The beat in many of these poems chimes at the right time like the sound of a French clock and has a soothing and hypnotic effect. Get a load of the following poem: After Rain A beautiful sunrise after rain View the countryside in a train Of bough, leaf and sky The forest full of animal laughter Monkeys chirrup and chatter The noise of water in the gutter Like the noise of people in the ghetto Air shrill with cicada songs Weaver birds chat and gossip A group of Christians pray and worship. Fields ablaze with the sound of tractor engines Sweet smell of wet soil turned by cultivators I see African women in long dress Backs bent to sow maize seeds And soon, when the sun is hot And all are tired They go and sit under a shade Cooling their burning throats with the traditional brew Their strength regained anew. Not only is the poem musical, the poem like a huge camera captures the beautiful sounds of nature and the activities of the country side in a vivid way. There is also love punctuated with humour in some of these poems Take for example the poem, 'Love In The Rain' which forms the main theme of the poetry collection: Love In The Rain Two figures kissing in the rain Their mouth searching finding A zigzag of forked lightning Thunder hails his bolts Feeling the fast-bird flutter of her heart And the trembling warmth Despair in his voice wanting more Gasping and hands clasping Soon they retreat into the large farmhouse Their naked bodies casting fantastic dancing shadows Against the hurricane lamplight The sound of sex as the bed becomes talkative Outside the rain falls with cataclysmic fury Oh, Estha, I will love you forever ! Some poems are simple in their texture and yet their romantic flavour is quite appetizing. Take a taste from the poem, 'Maggie Please Come Back': Maggie Please Come Back When you are away You make me cry I am in love with you Don't ask me why Your presence makes even Angels sigh. Your eyes sparkle with Pure sunlight When you walk Your body talk In sweet whispers. Your smile has infected My bone marrow Tomorrow I will be weak And go down on my knees All I plead with you is: "Please come back baby, Don't desert me, come back. This romantic soup is shared by the following poems which make them very delicious for lovers. The poems are: 'moonlight music, saint valentine day, O sweet love!, Love's fury and letter to Martha, There are also real-feel-good poems which have a soothing and healing effect . Take a load on this: A Garden Of Eden Oh yet another beautiful morning A smiling sunrise after a rainy night Sweet sounds of nature and twitter of birds Scent of flowers which shine so bright To cause lovers to sigh in delight Woolly clouds which are white Drift across the sky like rock debris The bright sun blinks and comes in sight Isn't God great to create such heights Of glorious voluptuous beauty In our days and nights He made the nights so quiet So silvery with their moons and stars That we may sleep calmly and Snore all our problems away The milky way, a starry firmament Like diamonds street lights of A distant civilisation He made the nights so romantic, with The effect of moonlight on ponds and seas Watching all the luxury of Yachts bobbing on the waves Faint shadows cast from two figures Kissing at a pond A finger pointing wonderingly Somewhere in the sky to the Distant flash of lightning. Finally I would like to conclude by saying, 'Love In The Rain' is a poetry collection that tries to entertain a wide and varied readership. Enjoy your reading.
