Share what made you smile today…

Hello Everyone,

Amidst these dark times, it’s hard to remember things that still make us smile…but I feel now more than ever we should share some positivity…I was in a funk today, nervous about what’s going on around the world having my family scattered all over…but then I noticed my son drawing (read scribbling) for the first time and it made me smile… all the little things like this are precious…I would love to hear what made you smile today in the comment section! Let’s keep looking for that rainbow behind the clouds!

Don’t Cry

I will fight a million fights,

with the raging skies,

Just to bring a smile,

to your tear-filled eyes,

don’t cry…

for your tears can extinguish,

the brightest fires of any night,

and it can stop any heart,

from taking flight,

don’t cry.

Poetry

I lay,

listening to the quiet sound

of summer rain…

tapping on the forgotten window

of my heart,

writing poetry on earth.

Enchanted Rain

So many memories,

fall like enchanted rain,

of another time, another place…

When you held my hand, and hugged me,

cupped my little face, in your palms…

and now as I stare at the clear skies,

waiting with the deep blue ocean,

as the wind blows by, 

I hug you in my heart…

hoping, my hand will reach your soul.

Do you remember

Remember when we just talked

and listened to the nonsensical rhymes

of the rain…

do you remember?

Cold Pebbles

You did not know

where to begin

as you stood on the edge of your thoughts

trying to find sense

in the nonsensical rhymes

of the rain

pouring outside your window

tapping on the cold pebbles

of your heart

displacing  logic

a tad bit to the left

of what you felt was right…

you did not know.

September Skies

As the clouds drew in,

you waited with the evergreens

for rain to pour from September skies…

and caress your soul.
