It Happened On a Rainy Night - Collaboration

Foggy mists engulfed the bright 
When raindrops fell throughout the night 
The lampposts glowed at midnights dark 
When sweethearts kissed at Lover's Park

‘Twas the splendour of their sweet kiss
That led to years of intense bliss
Gentle rainfall and lamppost glow
Enhanced the stellar, long ago

Speaks Volumes Date: 9/4/2023 3:00:00 AM That's so clever Belle, you have written a last stanza for Charlie. No one else will think to do that, and its a beauty! oops pardon the Aussie slang. Belle I can tell there is a beautiful smile that's being hidden from your profile. Would love to see the whole picture. Cheers SV. Login to Reply Beryl Edmonds Date: 9/4/2023 7:30:00 PM Thank you very much SV. It’s taken me ages to get a picture on my profile, at last I’ve achieved it, but my photos come up blurred, this one I used is not too bad, it will do until I can find one that comes up clearer. … Belle
