Rainy Days

These stormy days cause me to muse on diff’rent points of thought about perspectives that we choose when in the rain we’re caught. While raindrops curl around your heart, they hide my tears from view; for you sweet thoughts of love impart; for me they hide the blue. While you will seek the rainbow's end, and puddles you can splash; I seek shelter for to fend as storm and thunder crash. Yet still we both enjoy the rain for different reasons said; you yearn to feel the drops again; I’d rather stay in bed.

Both moments are amazing. Lingering in raindrops, feeling the sweet touch. Or- staying in bed, while the rain taps hard on the window, the thunder echoing in the distance as well. Your thoughts are wonderful and they bring a smile. :) Brandy
