Spring is supposed to be a wet time
When the warmth from the south
Brings with it the moisture
That renews all things,
Turning brown to green again
Providing the store of water for dryer times

It hasn’t rained much this year
And what has fallen only seems to
Quench sparks that were meant to
Last until the climate changes
And such stoked fires are not needed
To warm night and days

I usually like the clouds
But some are more ominous than others
Spinning through the days or nights
Ripping apart things so carefully built
Leaving us with the ruins to pick through
And rebuild if enough has not splintered

I wait now
As clouds play in azure realms
Wondering if such clouds will
Tear this house apart

(sigh) Wow, this is both very beautiful and eerie, sweet friend, I too have that feeling when I look at dark clouds as if it is a harbinger of something ominous to come, though I always know the impression is that the rain will fall and make everything anew again with lushness and green! (big hugggssssss) This is very wonderfully said, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ron, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

The clouds transform like the ocean recesses
through the sands of time, and I am reminded of that very time that waits for no one.  Wish I knew the words to comfort you Cpat.  I guess all I can say is that your words comfort me in a strange way, making me feel less alone.

Sigh.

And so ends the three...well, the three so far unless more are coming. ~Reaches out to hug Ron~

Wonderful examples of metaphorical exploration - all of them. Sad for the hurt if it's autobiographical...
