Dreary Day

A poem for the loved ones we've lost. I awoke this lonely, dreary, day to all the clouds of steely gray life's vibrant colors losing hue with not but empty things to do Till the rain falls in its contempt To mock the many tears I've spent its blurring haze caused disarray Drowns the mind of things we'd say Sat there by windows of the past these things in life that never last My broken thoughts, storm through As I awoke this day still missing you

Thanks for sharing this... but what matters most to believers who have hope in Christ is the assurance of seeing each other with the Lord in eternity. God bless you.
