*

Carry me through the rain

*


Stormy clouds gather in my sky,
heavy downpour blurs my vision
and big puddles chill my feet.
I let the water cascade
over my brooding
to remove all the moody dust
occluding my brain.

And I wish you would
carry me through the rain.


Within your cupped hands
my tears convert into marbles
painted with flashing smiles,
you fling them with determination
into the tunnel of sorrow
created in moments of mystification.
Escorted by the sound
of your persuasive voice
all remnants of dark thoughts
leave the meanders of my mind.

You take my hand in yours
and infuse new life
into my dormant feelings of belonging.
Your calm trust swells up
and floods my heart and soul,
obstacles disappear from my sight.
Tears and raindrops
melt into rivers of release.
Summoned by the sun,
in shafts of light I’m lifted up
into healing spheres of peace.

I am no longer stuck in the grip of pain
for you have carried me through the rain.

loved the lines:

"you fling them with determination
into the tunnel of sorrow
created in moments of mystification."

...and for a third language, that is first-rate.

~ Fortunate are those who have someone to take them through the difficult times.

Beautifully scribed, Maga Margherita.

I find the rain so soothing ~ and cleansing.

Love to you, dear poetess!

Margherita....

"to remove all the moody dust"

I know of this dust and the power it can sometimes hold...bring on the rain!!  Your poetry is lovely, as always.

“I let the water cascade
over my brooding
to remove all the moody dust
occluding my brain.

And I wish you would
carry me through the rain.”

Oh how that rolled off the tongue
like syrup on a warm pancake.

Loved this Margherita.

And through each life
A little rain must fall
How blessed are those
Who carry through all
