Rain was heavy drifting on those dull
Sparkling waters
Under leaves
To  stop fighting enough
To understand children

We have moved from religion
To tax
And propetry
To keep people
Together
As we parted
This area from
Everyone else

I ask
How many people
Who tell others
How to live
Have the time to spend more than
A day a month
Together
Learning how

I was formed by these days
To make me
Go out and find the world
To form my own life

And eventually to

Write

Maybe my mother
Who could write
Had her own ideas

These are as usual words
Imaging visions
of emotions
To keep this world
Alive

This is a contemplative and deep write just perfect for rainy days and Fridays, of which it's both in Australia. Excellent job.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

I like Sundays
By the way

Thanks and yes I still remember the rain as a kid on the pane.
