Rain

All light in the sky
is shortly consumed
Me and you holding hands
losing sight of the new moon

Strolling down to the field
with intent to play a game
We pass and chase a little ball
while it starts to poor down rain

You push off me and race away
then I get up off the ground
I run and hold you tightly
and we tumble all around

We gaze into each-others eyes
as you now lay below me
I tell you I love you much
and then you begin to hold me

The perfect moment, the perfect kiss
in such stormy of all weather
It seems like the ultimate bliss
nothing compared could prove better

I stand and pull you up with me
afterwards falling in my arms
Never wanting this ever to end
for I am absorbed in all your charms

But finally we look around
and, across the field, the ball is rolling
Both of us trying to catch the rebel
before, too far, it decides to go strolling.

We stop the shifty ball just in time
then I hear the ring of your cell phone
As you open it I hear your parents voice
and they are telling us to come home



WHAT A DAY TO HAVE HAD
COULD NOT HAVE DREAMED IT BETTER.
AMAZING HOW SUCH A SPECTACULAR TIME
COULD HAVE COME OF SUCH BAD WEATHER.

**Not the create of the contest's Jenn, my girlfriend Jenn. Wow, that is weird. I opened up her profile and at the top of the page it said "Love you Jenny," and I thought, "go away, her and I are in love, she's mine," as if there wasn't more than one Jenn in the whole world. I am laughing so hard right now. Oh well... LOVE YOU (my) JENN!!!!

    Absolutely beautiful, its amazing when you can have a moment that completly takes your breath away. The innocent playing and the 'accidental' lead to a very intimate moment, its a moment you wont forget, this poem brought the emotions to life and i could actually see this happening, you brough back alot of my own memories from the rain and i thank you for that. keep penning!

    Aw! It's so sweet! There's so much passion in this write- I especially liked these two stanzas:
    We gaze into each-others eyes
    as you now lay below me
    I tell you I love you much
    when you begin to hold me

    The perfect moment, the perfect kiss
    in such stormy of all weather
    It seems like the ultimate bliss
    nothing compared could prove better

    Lovely! I'd go over it again and smooth out the flow- some parts are a little rocky. But otherwise it's perfect. Good luck in the contest!

    great job!

    This is a really pretty poem, I love how it creates a visual. I can just see this happening, imagining the smell of the light rain. The background and font colors really accent it as well, and are pleasing to look out. Now for the dreaded criticizing. I feel that some of the rhymes are forced, and in some places, you have too many words. For example, in the second to last stanza, you have "We stop the shifty ball just in time/
    then I hear the ring of my cell phone/
    As you open it I hear your parents voice/
    and they are telling us to come home."

    I think it would be better if it was:
    We stop the shifty ball just in time/
    Then I hear the ring of my (shouldn't it be your?) cell phone/
    As you open it I hear your parent's voice (I like how you combine the parents like they are one)/
    They are telling us to come home.

    After you polish this poem a bit, I believe it will be a great success.
