Darkening Rain

The day was long and hard
old body aching  and full of pain.
My spirit was low, almost  broken
driving home in darkening rain.

Key turning the lock, door opens
and there she was with welcome smile.
My darling, arms open, glad to see me
we hugged, kissed, snuggled awhile.

She wears one of my favorite shirts
my precious, lovely, little tramp.
Spirit soars upward on wings of love
burning with fire, wearing cold and damp.

We go on to play in the shower
her response better than imagination.
We giggle as we play all warm and wet
love so wonderful, so worth chasing.

The day was long and hard
old body aching and full of pain.
As I come home to my loving wife
she kisses away, darkening rain.

from his arm,
Captain!"

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

How can you save me?
When the dark comes right in and takes me,
from my front walk and into bed,
where it kisses my face and eats my head. Shivaree

so sweet and lovely thoughts

Sometimes you have to let go and move on,
But never let go of the memories.
