In the Rain

Written June 6, 2013 The preacher read the gospel And we sank into our tears Tearing down the curtain We've been behind for all these years A baby leaves its mother An angel drops its wings Leave me bound against the wall Dangling by a string Sitting by the window Hoping she'll remember me Sitting by the window Contemplating memories Resolve your inhibitions And you'll find me in the garden Where the flowers drink champagne And God is in the rain

Poignant expressions here- I must say a very well thought out verse. Thank you for the encouragement on my poem, Goodbye, My Child Always, Laura
