Drip, drip dripping
raindrops landing at my feet
Disguising my tears
as they softly meet
~~~
These tears I cry
I cry for you
As the raindrops drip
with my tears so blue
~~~
Softly the raindrops
land upon my skin
The tears forming
from deep within
~~~
Only the raindrops
drip dripping on me
Capture my tears
and then I'm not free
~~~
Soon a rainbow will appear
The sun will shine once more
then the rain will stop
from my heart sunshine will pour
~~~
Then once more I'll shine
and my heart will be set free
No more rain drops
drip dripping on me
~~~

well my clock shows after midnight so I count that as morning. LOL....Did I tell you that it was so very nice to see you back here.  Come back whenever you can and I do understand that things in real life are more important so we will light a candle or two and leave them in the windows for you.  Came back to add to file.

Rainbows only follow the rain...so sad but true.  This was excellent work Tracie, the flow of this piece was super and the message and feeling in it poured down like the rain...to my library this must go, to remind that into every life a little rain must fall but if we look....so does sunshine and rainbows.  (*Hugs*)

Hi Tracie66,
Thank you for letting me know about this writing. I like it, and you have written with much tenderness. Another way, of looking at the raindrops.
