Pondering Thoughts

She is sitting on the dock
Getting soaking wet
Its raining, its pouring
It does not matter
She is enjoying the rain

She decides not to complain
While she sits on the dock
In  the pouring rain
She is pondering
Her life getting wet

She knows she has come
A long way in life
Being through hardships
That she dealt with
Things are better now

Dear Darlene, I am so glad to find this gem today. I can sense the strength and perspective through life's "rain" - both literal and metaphorical. What a testament to the power of resilience, a positive attitude, and self-reflection in the face of life's difficulties. Well Inked! Autumn Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel
