Rain Streaks Down Window Pane

rain streaks down window pane
 sadness echoes in thunder's roar
 teardrops falling from cloudy eyes
 yet in some distant place
 laughter colors sky with rainbow

Brandy Nicole Date: 5/18/2019 8:14:00 AM Raindrops can hide the pain, the sadness and tears. The sound of thunder can hide an ache that echos in the heart. Yes, in some distant place " laughter colors sky with rainbow" You have so many emotions tangling through this. Beautiful in every way. A Favorite for me. As I love the rain and the way your words touch every moment. ~ Brandy Login to Reply Joseph May Date: 5/18/2019 7:50:00 PM Thank you Brandy, and thanks for making it a fave...
