This Autumn evening,
Resembled a Springtime warmth.
Slowly the rain,
Dropped and drizzled,
Slumber for a fizzled will.
Watching from behind,
My manmade curtain of glass,
I shielded myself,
From it cleansing.
As fresh tears of my own,
Gave way for no apparent reasons.
Must relax..
And slip away..
Must cease to move,
And bear no more ills.
Must
Have
Silence,
While this pointless mood,
Settles upon me.
Slumber...
What an unattainable goal.

My name isn't Baby, and I don't want to cyber.

Ah yes, me too, girl. Hope you feel better soon. Very expressive.

Hey, take it easy, there is too much beauty there for you to be hurting. Cheer up. Common, raise that smile one more time.

Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love

Autumn rain has a way of doing that. . .

Wonderful, but sad. . .

Temptress,

This was lovely. I hope your spirits soar soon.

Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats

Well now. Such depth, solemness, longing, yet, knowledgeable and mature enough to know
that "this too, will pass".

Wonderful write,
