To one called Rain, by whatever name
----------------------------------------------------

Rain in the Mists

Poignant eyes unseeingly stare
Across the sea to horizons lair
The lair of the mists eternally rising
Shimmering smoke always hiding.
Hiding from sight what is within
Past lives, past loves, where to begin.

A gentle smile lifts chiseled lips,
At thought of the magic of the mist.
Mists which curled and swirled around,
Until a shape appeared to be found.
More than once they had attained
To bring the one he had called Rain.

One carried forward from eternal past,
ever to appear, but not to last.
Their souls to be, to love once more,
Only to slip in the mists opening door.
One day to awake and find her gone,
Her side of bed, cold and forlorn.

Rain was her name with sunshine eyes
From misty isles where mystery lies.
So on sails the ship, forever to be,
dragonhead peering out to sea.
Chasing the mists, wherever found
Til his arms again would be around.

The image in his mind to ever see,
A smile on her face, only for he.
Laughter like sleigh bells softly played,
Only caressed a love in fine array.
Search he would forevermore,
Rain to be waiting at misty door.

ahh, Sweet One. You know I love this!

Did I mention that you keep getting better and better?

You know my favorite line is this:

"A gentle smile lifts chiseled lips,"

Great writing here Logan!
               "Rain was her name with sunshine eyes

                Chasing the mists, wherever found
                Til his arms again would be around."

Love that verse!

This is just beautiful! Magical and mystical.

Not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

BRAVO!!! Wow, this poem just blew me away to the marvelous voice and visions cleared through the soft mist of your thoughts! (sigh) Yes, Rain will indeed rain to her door, but it will imeediately be followed with a rainbow, a smile of colors that will color her heart and forever set her to dance in his arms. (smiles) The search shall be complete for her very soon! (smiles) Wonderful vision, I loved being loosened in your gorgeous visions! You have such a beautiful heart, dear friend, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

This is my favorite of yours. Very nice imagery, Logan. It seemed so real. Like watching it happen in a movie before me. Great work!
