Dancing In The Rain by Micah Lang

Someone I know who will remain nameless asked me to write a poem for them with the subject being Dancing in the rain. So, I thought I'd just share it with everyone.



One time I looked out upon the nightsky
I saw the blue moon and a fading light’s cry
--------------------------
The rain was falling down ever so gentle
But thick as a fog just after it settled
------------------------
It seemed oh so beautiful, so clean and so pure
It came from the heavens, of this I was sure
-------------------------
It was then that I saw her, under the moon wane
Dancing her heart out, a flower in the rain
---------------------------
She seemed so content, a child as it seems
With hands stretched out wide, so lost in her dreams
-----------------------------
The smile on her face, made my breath go away
I’d never seen peace, been portrayed in that way
-----------------------------
As tears filled my eyes, at the life that I saw
She turned to look at me, and beckoned me on
-------------------------------
I walked out to meet her, there drenched in the rain
I didn’t care why, my heart was not sane
-------------------------------
My love held my hand, and looked into my eyes
She didn’t seem fazed, in the least bit surprised
---------------------------------
She asked me if this one time I’d give the chance
To do something crazy, she asked me to dance
---------------------------------
I laughed for she had never asked me before
I’d wanted this always, than anything more
----------------------------------
She wanted to dance, if I didn’t mind
I grabbed her so fast, not to lose any time
------------------------------------
I’m glad it was raining, cause’ then I could cry
With love like this here, undeserving am I
----------------------------------
As rain poured down hard, time seemed to slow
The cry of our hearts seemed to drown out the flow
------------------------------------
If you haven’t known it, then I can’t explain
To dance with my precious one . . . to dance in the rain
