Summer Rain

'The Thundering Silence' The coming summer rain with drops of pain Our lamenting love slowly slips away My soul is slain with a thunderous vein My heart left broken it begins to weigh The tempered tears will drain as they detain My longing for you on this summers spray Thru the summer storm my love will transform I look to the rainbow a welcome warm... ~~~ Angels in flight within great holy height Looking for your love a heavenly view Bringers of light they have you in their sight My love divine from them is overdue Scribing angels write of my lonely night After the storm a rainbows hue they flew A summer rain remind that I may find My lost love now a caressing entwined. Aug.21.2017 SUMMER RAIN STORM Sponsored by: Dale Gregory Cozart One Ottava Rima, 8-16 lines Your rhyme must be abababcc, with ten syllables per line.

The falling rain are your tears.Because your tears has ceased to shed. You are now beginning to heal. A lovely poem. Have a nice day my friend.
