Thinking of You

A curtain of rain obscures my view, as I gaze out my window and think of you. You've been gone for many a year, leaving only memories for me to hold dear. And hold them dear, I do indeed, embracing them when I'm in need. You see, the rain poured down on that day too, as I gazed out the window, thinking of you. A knock on the door and two uniformed men, regretfully informed me of your life's end. 8/28/16 For Broken Wings Five rhyming stanzas - 5 only contest 5 couplets. ( This is fictional)

Me, too - the disclaimer thing (see below - Charlie). This is poignantly touching and goes straight to the heart ... CayCay
