A rolling sound of thunder echoes from your soul Storm clouds on the horizon so dark and cold Stillness surrounds you, yet you expect turbulent winds The gale that can sink a fleet, or cause a world to end You clutch the life jacket called love and dearly hold Yet wonder if anyone is aware of the pain deep in your soul You hide it so well with a mask of sunshine painted on your face But plod through life hid in your work, never losing faith You've marched to a different drum beat as you daily live With so much love and passion you were willing to give Lovely you are, and many have yearned for your touch But all your attributes, like an unused book gather dust Your frailty from burdens you bear, loom heavy on your mind Break down walls that surround your heart, stay gentle and kind Send all your problems on heavens high wire, and remember my name When woes of life deluge your soul, dance with me in the rain |

To dance in the rain is a favorite dream of mine ... (and a few times I did realize the dream). I was attracted by the title and what I found makes me want to ask a question ... are you a clairvoyant? Ok, I am barefoot and ready .... Powerful write, it does show great sensitivity. Love, Margherita |

Paul - I've danced in a warm southern rain, and it's just grand. Hard to describe it, but you have in this writing... BC |
