howl me another one and maybe I'll just go away quietly or not it isn't every day that the wind and rain gets the best of me but today the skies are crying a river faster than I can cry over you no I will not float away today nor is it likely I shall drown in misery's streambed but damn, sometimes I hate cloudbursts that open up and let you have it between the eyes no more like FROM the eyes and tomorrow? the brilliant sun might shine again, not that it will make a difference to me for I shall get up and do what must be done no matter the weather what weather? |

"but damn, sometimes I hate cloudbursts that open up and let you have it between the eyes" Well said, Kacy! The strength of you shows in the title...it's almost like a dare. On the other hand, it reminds me a little of those lines, "Play it again, Sam." Yes, you will do what a woman has to do. ...jo |

I love your reply, Jo! LOL, you must have some xray visual ability. I wish we lived close enough to go chat all day at a coffee shop! I'd even grace the table of a Denny's just to sit and chat about life with you. And...if a wrankster prankster, a winged dove, and witchangel (from nawlins, not montgomery) should also show up?? LOL, we would take over those coffee pots and MAKE the morning news go where we wanted it to. Am I hallucinating????????? |

I love how this simply rolls like the thunder clouds that are ever present through out. Excellent write. Tomorrow comes for those who fear it. |

I could feel the pain between the lines. Just remember that behind the darkest clouds that the sun still does shine. Hold on for brighter days, they will warm your heart once again. Hugs, Fee Expressions, |

Sigh...all the good words have been taken, but I particularly like this portion. "that open up and let you have it between the eyes no more like FROM the eyes" A pleasure to read you, Kacy. Ken Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |
