Little Blue Bird of Rain

Little Blue Bird of rain.

Rain, rain go away
Little Blue Bird of Rain, needs to shine again
In her version the sun dried, up all her tears
Leaving hurtful rain inside the bird
Destructive past sudden cheers
Waking up to empty words
When abandoned by her peers
Just not knowing what had just occurred

Drowning herself in a life of Jane Doe.
Never know who she really is
When all she loves hanging her lowest moment
The rain brought out Mary-Jane.
As the bird lost its glow.
The rain tricked her once to use Cocaine.
As her feathers met that one Joe.
He broke her wing and brought more Rain.

Very young, very sweet.
Living her life in the fast lane.
Hard for her to stand on her feet.
Balanced her life on one leg, like the crane.
Curtains hang over her wings.
While she let no one near her domain.

While she flies through the heavy rain.
She finds her comfort with a pen.
Using the lords name in vain.
Cursing all her backstabbing friends
With no one around to explain?
All the sorrow left her on a railroad track.
Ending up like the runaway train.
Only she can get her life back.

If for myself I ever felt pain?
I felt more pain at what she wrote about. 
In my face on my left side 
Your poetry comes to life in my head. 
Visions of her wanting to be dead.
Oh! How I wish this life she did not dread.

You hide the tears you shed so well.
A life with balls you cut the chains.
You diss, Your parents to go to hell.
Little Blue Bird of Rain, don't let them fools drive you insane.

Little Blue Bird of Rain.
If a sparrow could show you,
There is more to life than pain.
Under the umbrella, the sparrow would cover you.
No one wants to see her colors drain.
What a world to master her feathers into art.
The gift of words runs through her vein

The paintings on her wall.
A dream of a bad seed of grain.
One day our Little Blue Bird will stand tall.
To free herself from all the Rain.

It is hard to see others suffer and not really have much to offer, except time and a listening ear.

Asking Love to smile while the rain seems to hold us for ransom is a bold thing to do, but sometimes the only way to survive with dignity - this poem is a beautiful means to support a friend PD. - I love your sensativity - your new avatars are great; the one with the Goddess and blazing lake of fire really suited you - J.A.B. %

I came all the way back to this oldie to say. What the HELL are you doing on Soup when you are at a movie? hahahahaha. Give me a break, PD. even I the greatest addict of them ALL would not be reading Soup comments in a movie. well, it would help if I knew HOW to text. hahahahaha. I will probably stay here half an hour longer and then go upstairs to exercise. I do this dumb thing where I step up and down on my little stepping board and also run in place for half an hour (nights I don't use gym)
