Driving to work today
I spied a rainbow
Stretching across the morning sky.
Last night’s storm is gone
Leaving behind telltale signs:
Puddles, broken limbs and
Debris-strewn ground.
I thought of you.
Our relationship was a stormy one
Thunderclouds of drama
Lightening strikes of pain
Amid the gusty blasts of passion.
Drenched from the storm
I sought shelter
In a more temperate clime.
My life was strewn
With the debris of loving you,
But I breathed in the freshened air
And basked in the sun’s warmth.
Surviving the tempest of our love
Made me search for the
The peace of a clear day
And gave me renewed faith
In the weatherman
Who predicts sunny skies
After the storm.

can almost smell the air after the rain...
Love the ending...
sunny skies are here, and you won't be disappointed. Bill
