Rain of Moments They rain, douse my cast of head Moments that are past and dead Drench me in their spill of drain Some of joy and some of pain They wet me down and out the fire Smother the new of my desire. Cover me with smoke of night And choke the hews of palette light. They crash and fizzle on my heart Splash and sizzle on depart Dissolve the embers into mud Each moment’s drop of sound and thud They drain the energy of flow Within a hearth of long ago And hover over birds that fly Like threatening clouds and lightning sky They follow me in endless stream And swallow me in senseless dream |

They crash and fizzle on my heart Splash and sizzle on depart Dissolve the embers into mud Each moment’s drop of sound and thud Hello Seymour I especially like this verse about "fizzle" and "sizzle". LOL You are so cute!! Hugs to you, my friend Ethel |
