Hmm, because it's erotic and I really like the way it reads!.

and I just like the way the following one sounds

"Summer Rain"

Do you like summer rain!?
then lay with me
on summer grass
beneath the sun
and sprinkles of rain!.!.!.

while I watch
the rain pour over you
I am aware
of my desire

for a moment!.!.!.
to be the rain that soaks
through your clothes
and covers your body!.

add: It just dawned on me that the poem linked has your Yahoo name!.!.!. lol, I did not set that up!. That is too wierd!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's not that I think they are great, but, since they are all so personal, I still have a hard time picking just one!.

I like this one because it represents my love of art and nature:

I like this one because this was a tough form and it is the most unusual poem I've ever written:

I like this one because it is about my children:

It's always the last one I wrote, they become part of me for a couple of days, like a cold!

The last one I wrote is back a page, under the question What's the best journey you can think of!? This is a very personal poem for me as it came upon me this morning having heard some news item that stirred memories!. They are not all like this!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Est!. 1980‘z


Born in the decade
where the truth was said!.
Freestyle, rap, and hip hop
was on every block!.
You were stylin’
with your name designed on your pants!.
And you were wildin’
when he hit that b-boy stance!.
Ladies with their man
wearing ponytail fans!.
Dudes with twenty four karat golds,
rope chains, Chuck Taylors, and bank rolls!.
It was just the beginning
of something that’s still continuing!.
It all started from the streets!.
Listening to old school beats!.
My ladies wearing bangles!.
Dem dudes sporting Kangos!.
No matter if you were cute
you rocked your sweat suit!.
Somehow it brought out the cool
in you!.
It was like Mardi Gras
at the house parties!.
Wearing adidas,
trying to look like stars!.
I wore Lees before my jeans had fruit!.
You can’t dispute
in the 1980’z
We didn’t drive Mercedes!.
We were on skateboards
or whatever we could afford!.
It was the birth of a hip hop revolution
For the young generation!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

This one is probably my favorite due to it's sound alone--I just love reading it aloud!. It's also the only poem I've recited from memory at an open mic!.
