Draw the rain to you, my beloved, in resurrected hope. Lift your hands to the sky. Call out to the clouds to release their waters to pour upon you all their bounty. Let them shower you, cleansing you of yesterday. Let them mark the dawn of a new day.

Enter this new day fresh and refreshed, with hope and wonder, with eyes open wide. Reach your hands to touch every drop, and let every drop awaken desire within you.

Draw close and know me this day. Touch me and see that I am real, and that I am with you always. Walk on in new light, with resurrected hope and everlasting love, my beloved one.
