Raindrops’ Sonata

Part 1: Prelude

Moon’s light bends in the translucence of raindrops
Lovers drenched in the perfection of the moment
Still stained in the memories
Electric passion of the last storms

Breaking new light of the full moon
Remnants of sunset pink hues fading
Clothed and embraced in a song of rain
Lasting scream of two beating hearts

Their answer to resplendent happiness
Pleasant sound, subtle, slight
The rain’s drops falling on their faces
Looking upward at the brightening moon

Quiet, yet aware, a gentle reminder
Of the love they now and have forever
Shared, in the droplets
Washing away the final falling tear

Remembering the furious passions
Of yesterday’s disasters
Moon and rain witness the mix
Misunderstandings of life below
Falling, showering, covering, knowing

The lovers have been together since
Time began
Their love placed the moon in the sky
Set adrift, encircling forever
Shining, the last star

Love’s moonlight sonata
Shining forever on the dark romance
Soft breeze – ever-present, ever-blowing, ever-alive

Part 2: Gift

I want to make you a gift
Sweet and a little strange
It’s a gift, the one you never accept from me…

Your smile I will give to the moon
Because
Only in the night can I think on you
And because your smile is more important than what people say…
All words

It’s a gift

What I tell you now
This… it never ends
It is forever, we are forever
Before knowing you, love,
My life was the same as most lives…
But the love is bigger than our Universe now
I will give to the rain and the moon your smile

Part 3: Acceptance

Your gift I accept
With contriteness of heart
It flows with the truth
An offering in love

Great tree of great life
Stands today and tomorrow
Soft breeze of love’s moment
Gently kisses each leaf

I offer my smile
To you and the moon
As happiness blooms
When you enter this scene

Our Universe grows
As we live this new dream
Cleansed in the rain
Smiling with the moon
