Beautifully together... Could be a song.

Ron

this is an elixir for peace and contentment if ever I have seen one -- and a mighty fine one too, I might add -- thanks for the attitude adjustment Eileen -- peace and love be with you this day and evermore my dear friend -- Jon Michael

This sounds positive and pleases me to no end. Patrick

happy holidays Eileen, thanks for helping bring us together, great inspiring verse, every little bit or whole lot helps, cheers

You remind me of why I like storms and the good poets who celebrate them.

Love that piccy, Eileen, and these lines - sometimes you just got to let it out and once you do, you feel cleansed. :) Well done, these StormSpinner kind of words - wish I'd written this!

(((HUGS))) love and continued prayer, Karla.

Uplifting, Eileen. Your positivity shines in this poem. Hugs,
Sheila

A good rant can lower your blood pressure in the long run and put your mind at ease or make you feel like a dam fool but as always your poetry is right on the mark. Hugs. Rhonda sends her best to you and hopes you are feeling better.

Awesome. I've been there and done that and you've said it so well. Liz

Hey you chum ...
This, to me , is a great
metaphor for the cleansing
power of just crying. I know
I've done my share, especially
this last year - one of the hardest
of my life. Nice to see your name again.
luv r

a beautiful and encouraging write!

Gee Wwiz Eileen
this exactly how I feel presently
away from home, in miserable cold and rain
a few scatted flake threatening no snow
vapor steam exciting my speechless mouth
as I am thinking of my warm sun shining home
where the palm tree roam and my lawn
stay green all year round
I am beginning to hate Holidays...... Bah!
Love & peace be with you

William

Let your mind wander, without fear
Cleanse your eyes, shed a few tears

Sounds like good advice to me, Sis.

Aren't rain the one that wash the face of the earth after we have muddied it allover?

VERY NICE!!!!!!!!! Liana Margiva

Beautiful write, Eileen; God bless you and welcome back! I've missed you; know you continue to be in my heart and prayers!

(((HUGS))), much love, and Merry Christmas~

As always, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :D

Eileen, it's so nice to see you back...you "teach" so much through your work! This is a keeper.

It is my sincere conviction that you offer fine advice via your verses here, Eileen. Thank you. Love and best wishes,

Regis

ET,
Great to have you back among all your friends and fans!!
This poem is one that I can relate to. I believe that your words will hit a chord with many of your readers. Nicely done, superb writing!
Much peace, love, and light,
Amber "V"

It's great to see you Buttercup and your positive side shows in this poem. I hope you're enjoying the warmer weather there in Cally. It's chilly here in Florida so I'm moving north to Savannah where I'm used to the humid winters.
Bless you and love,
Susan

...makes me think of being washed in the wash machine and hung on the line to dry with the breeze and sun....great poem :)

Beautiful combine of abandon and restraint!

There is a grain of passion in your words. GBQ

THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A GOOD CRY THAT WASHES THE WINDOWS OF OUR SOULS AND HELPS US TO 'SEE' CLEARER. SO VERY, VERY TRUE... GOD BLESS YOU ELAINE AND THANKS FOR THE SHARE. JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

I often feel like sometimes I'm just a rainy day.
Weather or seasons- emotions connect us to all that is around us.
Great poem!

John

Eileen,
Cleansing, catharsis, renewal...and the positive thought that if we go through rough times we can and will emerge better, happier.

Hope you're doing well.

John

wind and weather hurricanes and tears no more fears, and roamin in the gloomen, I guess you won't be needing a cane soon will ya.
Hugs! Jasmin Horst

This is so well written and so true. Sometimes we need to feel our feelings and refresh ourselves, so we can be able to look at life anew. Thank you for helping me remember this Eileen.

With Love,
Cindy

love the rhythm and rhymeyness (not sure that is a word haa haa) sweet reminder when feeling lost in the dreary...let it go....

Very well done, Eileen.

HELLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, Eileen! :)) It's so good to see you back! And with this very honest and refreshing appetiser, too. Works for me - we've plenty of wind and wuthering down here on the Dorset coast at the moment but I was also thinking of spring coming again today. Hope springs eternal. I was just gonna mail you - hope your eyes are OK... mine seem to be coming out in sympathy. Thanks for getting my head in gear again this evening! Love and prayers, Kate xx

AS always Lady Eileen your poetry is superb.

GOD BLESS
Tony

I heard that, my friend. Hope you are feeling like you've got it together. In other words, sometimes we need the cold, gloomy down-pouring of rain to fully appreciate the warm sunny days. Gotta love it . . .
