If storm clouds gather around your heart.
and tempests rip your life apart
be sure the maelstrom  will subside
and soon you'll see where rainbows hide.

Though now you feel condemned to suffer
for loss of your best friend and lover
a day will come when pain will cease
and you will find contented peace.

All clouds will thin, and drift away
a gentle breeze will come to play
Your pain will cease, your eyes will dry
The sun will blaze across your sky.

When once again you feel secure,
Love's goblin will once more ensure
the sure, swift passage of his dart
to begin a new love in your heart.
    

Poetry is just the evidence of life.
If your life is burning well, poetry is just the ash. "
Leon Cohen~

Exquisite!  And wonderful form.

In the midst of winter,
I found there lives within me..
An invincible summer.
