I remember...she loved the rains...

She loved the rains..

The touch of rain-drops on her bare skin.

My lips drinking them dry.

I remember

how she sighed then.

The only other time she sighed like that was when

I whispered some Neruda to her.

She loved the rains......

I remember

when she sat next to me

On that rickshaw ride that rainy day,

and I covered us with an umbrella.

Her body shivered, with my touch.

I leaned down and licked those drops sliding down her neck.

I remember

how she sighed then.

The only other Time when she sighed like that was when

I whispered in her ear,”I love you princess...”

Her sparkling eyes with those missing eyelashes,

Looked at me and then looked down.

Her moist lips slowly mumbled but she bit them close.

I slowly placed my finger at that dimple on her cheek

I remember

how she blushed then..

I remember how we kissed in that rain...

I remember.... she loved the rains.....
