Blink

Oops, a raindrop!
        one more tear
till I  surrender
        again, my Dear.

Sun’s out-
        your eye winked
on my side of the earth.
a blue streaked eyelash
      just blinked Love

swept the cloud
trickling smiles
        from the floodgate.
The rain is gone
        but you are not

Well, well,
        hello Lord!

    This is captivating. God blinking in sunlight with his (her?) eyelid in blue sky is so creative. As always you have done a lovely job!

    This is so well structured and demonstrates your skill with vivid imagery and simile that goes to supporting the overall metaphor. It is simple and straightforward which lends to its gentle profundity.

    I like the way you use personified nature as the conduit of the Creator's communications, which you express indirectly until the last line. Without that last line it becomes an entirely different poem. You are very skilled at using the end of a poem to modify the beginning of a poem and change it's entire meaning. This leads to multiple readings.

    Thanks for this quiet little gem. Very much appreciated.
