Rain

Raindrops
Softly wash away
the silly dreams
of yesterday.
Cleanse 
the heart
the soul
of pain
for all the dreams
you'll dream again.
With all the tears
you held in store
to mix in
with the rain,
finally pour out
Bitter sweet.
Unnoticed just
the same.

Thank you Silent One. I found a bunch of my older stuff while cleaning house. This was one of my Fathers favorites.
