Crying In the Rain

He was my lad, and I was his most loving lassie. In error, dreamt I, this would forever last. But we both had individual dreams to fulfill and so it came ~to pass, Under a raindrop-pelted umbrella that final kiss we shared. The gray skies wept as hard as I! Watching him in his trench coat after bidding me goodbye~ I watched his figure till he was swallowed by the crowds. We both still had a future? A secret, God hid from me,in His merciful clouds!

A fave, dear lady... This is a gentle touch from you pen that leaves me wanting more. It's brilliant and such a smooth gesture of hope and abandon. God bless your words, my friend

I just had to see how you would counterpoint this to 'Singing in the Rain,' as soon as I spotted the title... And you certainly did the job, Mademoiselle Poet. Sigh. ~ Gershon

Life...love...the mystery of relationships. Best not to waste energy trying to figure everything out -- knowing that, whatever the powers that be, they really do try their best to right the future for all parties concerned. I guess, that is why having Faith is so important for a healthy heart and soul. Beautifully written, Pangie. xxx
