It's Raining!!!

Just another dull morn for some
Though it may have been,
But for me it was Romance
Felt but unknown,unseen
The opalescent blue sky
Covering its face with dark grey clouds
As if the sun would blush into a smile
As soon as it is let out in the wild,
The clouds flashing looks of thunder
Not to reveal all of its feelings To the earth making a blunder.
The earth in its turn,awaiting a reply
To the question it proposed to the sky
A reply no sweeter could come
After such a long wait
The clouds drifting a little apart
To flash a lightning in its momentary hopeful gait.
The reply does not come.
The earth longing long enough
To inspire the sky,now drizzling
And the clouds pouring their heart out
The wait continues...
And with each passing wet drop of rain
Each dry,unseen tear of the earth
The pangs of pain renew
The clouds bent low over the mountains
Whisper in their well-concealed ears
The rivers take the message on from them
To the valleys which pass them further on
And confirm their worst fears
The sorrow of the longing earth
The compulsions of the helpless sky
The rain that started ages ago
Continues to this day...
As a symbol of unsuccessful love
As a symbol of incomplete longing...
It's just another dull,gloomy morn...
The same old story of ages of longing love,
Because again.....it's raining!!!

Both of us have used the sky and earth as beings in love.Your's is a much sweeter poem.It has this 'to be continued' or an unending feeling.Great!

I also have the same unending element, where they wait for someone else 'to revive the legend',but I make them come together,at least once in a poem!In classical singing,they unite many a time.
