And the Petals Fall

Next Invite

"

The rain teems to cool the summer heat down,

But it pours on for days, for days to flood the house;

Wet clothes and soggy shoes everywhere,

And nobody knows the sun's whereabouts.

Can it stop already? I need to dry my tears,

I need my heart to be kissed by the flaring light,

I've cooled off enough, allow me to the warmth now,

And maybe wait to fall until the next invite.
