Rainy Days Feelings buried, chained, hidden in the darkened recesses of my mind. Not aloud to surface because these memories bring searing pain and tear drops of heartache. Cleaning dusty closets, finding music of the past. This music made in a time of heart filled love and passion. The tape labeled, Are You Happy Now? Should I play or bury this beauty until another day? Looking out at the rainy day, the words come drifting across the dimly lit room, dancing lightly like wings of a delicate butterfly. Words like..........”I’ve got pieces of April, I keep them in a memory bouquet, I’ve got pieces of April, but it’s a morning in May.” Another tune comes along and I think- Maybe he should have listened to the music of Tina when she said, “You better be good to me.” Then a melody comes swinging into the room and my feet begin to dance. The words pounding to the steady rhythm of the drums and cow bell, telling of the “Family of Man.” As the rain sings her melancholy song, I smile and dance about the room. Sorrow once again buried and chained in the dark recesses of my mind. Until another day- When a deep ache breaks the chains and surfaces once again and listens to the mournful cry of the rain from yesterday. Love Bon-Bon |

(big hugggssssssss) Such a musical atmosphere fills this atmosphere, sweet friend, I love to listen to Latin music or jazz on every rainy day, it can soothe yet uplift the spirit, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Bonnie, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

Bonnie~ This is just a wonderful write~ 'Cleaning dusty closets, finding music of the past' Oh my ... I've just read a piece of my nostalgic little heart~ Needing to know - '..........I’ve got pieces of April, I keep them in a memory bouquet, I’ve got pieces of April, but it’s a morning in May.' Where does this beauty come from ? I didn't see an email for you ... but you can write me at [email protected] Thank you~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |
