A poem by Edward Thomas

Like The Touch Of Rain

________________________________________________
Title:     Like The Touch Of Rain
Author: Edward Thomas [More Titles by Thomas]

LIKE the touch of rain she was
On a man's flesh and hair and eyes
When the joy of walking thus
Has taken him by surprise:

With the love of the storm he burns,
He sings, he laughs, well I know how,
But forgets when he returns
As I shall not forget her "Go now."

Those two words shut a door
Between me and the blessed rain
That was never shut before
And will not open again.





[The end]
Edward Thomas's poem: Like The Touch Of Rain
