Fishin' Weather

There's a new kinda wind a blowin'
          I don't know where and I can't say why,
But only what the spirit's showin'
          Looks like rainbows in the sky.

People think I've gone crazy knowin'
          The sun's been blue and needin' to cry,
But those rainbows of late, now glowin'
          Stole those teardrops from the eyes.

And where'd they go those teardrops rollin'
          But down to the river's changin' tide
On which the angels have gone trollin'
          Reaching past the great divide.

There's a new kinda wind a blowin'
          I don't know where and I can't say why,
But only what the spirit's showin'
          Looks like folks ain't scared to die.

I'm not afraid to die, my friend, it is the way I'll die that concerns me. Nice work.

Thanks Jerry and Diana...

Regardless of where we might think we're going after, it's interesting, today, not fearing seems to be a common thread amongst us. My dad's getting kind of old and before surgeries he now comforts the doctors by letting them know it's OK if they're not successful because he's actually looking forward to death. Interesting.

Jerry, you're not alone and thanks for reading on till the end and capturing that punch line. Appreciate it!

Ah, Diana, be rest assured, as well, that angels are traveling on those tears and reaching over to allow a bit more sunshine to shine into your life. As always, thank you so much for your kind response.
