Love Letters clouds write love letters across the sky today rain is silent for a moment where yesterday it was broken deeply yet every single drop of it remembers life is a flight some days without wings there were conversations listening to you talk it was almost more than I could take tear stained face sat silent …waiting for you to stop now sometimes late at night when light is dim and no one else can hear my breath and even though it has been awhile I silently hold a torch for you "no darkness has ever been deep enough to extinguish my personal knowledge of love" Anne Rice |

Incredible imagery! I don't think I'll look at clouds or rain the same after reading your exquisite poem. Every line, a masterpiece...I wish I could grasp my feelings and write like this! misce' |

yet every single drop of it remembers life is a flight some days without wings There are a few poets that have such vision they make me see differently... I'm grateful for them... you are one of them... |

Guess they're always good. You still rock, IMHO!  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, |

I just love dropping back in and reading your stuff Helen. It is like the breeze after a cool rain. My child's smile tells me there's still hope |

Helen, I know you write your heart. And is spills ink arranged indelibly in my heart. It always creates an emotional impact. And then it makes me worry about you. This was wonderful, so very wonderful. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, |

This is a MOST fine ‘write’! I am especially fond of: “clouds write love letters across the sky”; ”today rain is silent… where yesterday… every single drop …remembers life is a flight some days without wings…” AND: “when light is dim and no one else can hear my breath… I silently hold a torch for you(!)” serious, sustained applause!! |
