A breath of comfort in the rain|
A blessing, unforeseen
Found in a time when life seemed vain
And sorrow filled each scene
The chill upon the air was nice
A sign that change was near
This momentary paradise
Spoke of goodness, sincere.
A time of peace amid the storm
A sign of things to be
An angel who took human form
To spread some joy to me
A treasure through the clouds and wind
Brought light amid the dim
Yet, when the light had reached its end
My thoughts returned to him.
For one short moment, yes... I smiled
The healing time is slow
One moment, sad; the next, beguiled
And still, the truth won’t show
Deep down, I sigh and wonder why
When grief is much to bear
Then, smile, as the angels’ pass by
Bringing the rain-cooled air.

And I have kept you in my prayers.
You encouraged me to write--to write the words--to work through it.
Glad to see you are taking your own advice.
This is a great "work in progress" piece.
Almost an ironic feel.
Really nice--RaeLynn
Liquid refreshment in your lines - need a lot of rain cooled air to stifle the oven that is North Central Texas - it was 105 today. 105! No wonder I'm melting, melting ........ well done, my friend. Especially meaningful, since we're both still missing our Daddies ...
(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
