Silver rain falls,
softly, gently,
comforting, and sweet.
washing away
the pain
of an unforgiving world.

It carefully cleanses
my storming thoughts
and brings peace
and serenity
to my aching soul.

The world can be cruel,
and selfish,
and mean.
It can leave
you weeping
and wanting
to give it all up.

But then
my silver rain comes
and washes away
my cares;
soothes my
angry heart;
disguises my tears
in its iridescent drops.

My silver rain
reminds me
that when lightening
splits my world
and shakes the very foundation
that I stand upon,
There is always comfort
through the pain.

This is what
I'm told
as the rain caresses.
Pain is temporary;
Shadows are transient;
Storms blow away.
All this said
in the tranquil whispers
of my silver rain.

A very beautiful write, dear Melissa. Soothing and insightful.

The rain has this quality too for me.

Love,
