Not Ready for the Rain to Leave Azure blue, so clear the sky today the sun, she's peeking in so bright but I think I'm missing some, the gray, and perhaps there's too much light I'm not ready for the rain to leave I need a reason for my heart so heavy it is difficult for me to believe I'd like dams to flood, to break this levy If a song comes on with sweet violin I feel the chills go across my soul the tears they fill and well within for a moment of feel, so old For I won't cry in the light of the sun and you can't get me to be the one to pull you down, nor make you frown no, I won't rain on your parading fun But I shall let your memory loose to go the way of you, if you choose I'm just not ready for the rain to leave for it would mask the way I grieve ~*~ 03/17/01 |

"But I shall let your memory loose to go the way of you, if you choose I'm just not ready for the rain to leave for it would mask the way I grieve" seems I'm never ready for the rain to leave.... I like this very much |

If a song comes on with sweet violin I feel the chills go across my soul the tears they fill and well within for a moment of feel, so old ====================================== But I shall let your memory loose to go the way of you, if you choose I'm just not ready for the rain to leave for it would mask the way I grieve ======================================= Lady....you wear your heart on your sleeve and your tearfilled verses fall like cadenced rain. this is a bittersweet beauty. must be read aloud to do it justice. Love the way you carried out the theme. tis been too long since we read thy words. So it seems your saving grace was only saving face, |

But I shall let your memory loose to go the way of you, if you choose I'm just not ready for the rain to leave for it would mask the way I grieve hiding the grief...in the drop of cloud and mist... nicely done as always.... |

you tug lightly on the heart strings today dear Lady....I loved this, and need to put it into the treasure box....thank you again for a wonderful treasure. On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free. ~Me~ (I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance~Garth) [This message has been edited by Gentle Spirit (03-05-2002 11:49 AM).] |

And with the rain do mingle tears from all the memories over the years and when the rains do once abate the memory goes on...though it is late.. Nicely written, sad, but very beautiful.. |

For I won't cry in the light of the sun and you can't get me to be the one to pull you down, nor make you frown no, I won't rain on your parading fun But I shall let your memory loose to go the way of you, if you choose I'm just not ready for the rain to leave for it would mask the way I grieve ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Lady, this is wonderful even though the sadness of words. I too love the rain, although perhaps for different reasons. Beautifully penned. ~Smiles & hugs, Nancy~ ~Time has cast a spell on you, |

(kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, my thoughts are with you, this is fabulous! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

sadly beautiful - Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

Not the norm for you, Lady, though beautiful. I much prefer the happy Lady Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |
