Life's poetry

Like it was yesterday

You know I love dancing in the rain.
I love to go dancing in the storm,
in the middle of the streets.
But my favorite part is when it's with you.
I still remember that day we danced
like it was yesterday.
You smelled the rain before it came.
That's when the thunder began to roll
through the clouds,
as if it was heavens horses on the run.
I looked at our clothes
knowing well we wouldn't make it in time.
But for some reason,
For some crazy reason,
I was okay with being in shorts
and a tank top waiting for the rain.
Just as I was about to speak
the rain came pouring down.
The rain sounding like ocean waves
were hitting the shore.
All you did was laugh and pull me into you
"Dance with me"
I don't know if it was your smile
or the look in your eye
but all I could do was nod.
The rain was warm and soothing.
We began to sway
the thunder our bass
and the rain our symphony.
We danced as if we were in a ballroom.
You spun me around
in the middle of the streets.
I never told you
but you made me love the rain.
You made me fall in love
with the sounds of thunder.
And fall harder for you.
We continued to dance
even as the downpour came to a drizzle
and the sun began to show.
It wasn't until the last roll of thunder
when you let me go.
I still remember it like it was yesterday.
The way you led me through the streets.
You know I love dancing in the rain.
But you made me love it more.
