Hi Gypsy, your poem is filled with high sensory appeal as well as beautiful imagery. I could see the whole scene in the rain, and I could hear the pitter/patter of the rain. I especially liked:

rain drizzled through the night
and outside the cool breeze billowed
as our passion's waves surged and swelled.

(Very sensual. This is what I call an ooh-la-la poem)

Beautiful artwork choice. A pleasure to read. Sorry for the late review. I am still so behind on reviews from being away. Xo. Margaret ~ LB

    G, I actually read the poem either yesterday or the day before, but decided to wait until today to review so that I could give you Six stars. However, I had a hard time finding it in my mailbox which is all backed up, so I went into your portfolio. Have a great evening. Xo. M

Either you found inspiration in a movie, or moviemakers need to read this poem to gain inspiration for a scene. We read it, and then close our eyes to imagine this beautiful episode in two lives.

Wow! This was exquisite, Gypsy! I like how you described the passion so eloquently as "waves surged and swelled." And you built the water imagery from the "pitter-patter" of the rain and the moon and stars reflected in the puddles and the drizzling rain until the final surging waves! I felt the strong crescendo! Best wishes in the contest!

Another fine poem, Gypsy....although I'm a little unclear on what you meant by, "waves surged and swelled," were they at a fishing derby near an ocean somewhere? That'd be my guess!

Beautifully descriptive free verse, Gypsy withwell used alliteration.
I love the Atticus quote - the poet waits to paint the unsaid.
I think you've achieved that beautifully. Cheers
Valda
