Own Small Comforts

The tropical storm moves closer Brings wind and choppy seas From my window it's a gray mass But ride out the storm with me Trapped in total isolation All alone in my pain Even the joy of the Seagull Disappears with falling rain The rain brings it own small comforts Water to make things green Clouds to hold sun's thermometer Time alone to daydream Sponsor: PD Contest: Any Poem Written: June 08, 2013 Posted July 02, 2013

Beautifully done my friend and congratulations...This makes me wonder which storm it was...Was it Issac last summer? Of course it was a hurricane when it hit us...Severe flooding and no power for a week...I have written quite a few poems about the hurricanes I have experienced if you would care to check them out - Tim

Yes, as you say - rain can lead to cozy evenings but sometimes things get out of hand as they recently did with Sandy where I live. Peace & Love Matthew Anish
