Sunshinethunder

The sun burning bright,across clear blue sky
The lightning so bright,it blinds the eye.

Not a cloud floating by,in a sky so blue;
Do you hear the thunder rumbling through?

Grass,flowers,and trees smile at the sun;
Gray ominous clouds across the earth do run.

Eagles fly higher on a clear summers'day;
The rain and the wind wash their nest away.

Birds and bees in the sunshine will forage,
Dams were made as a thunderstorms' storage.

Jet black clouds crying tears of lifes'pain.
In the east the sun rises starts over again

Graveyards are weeping as the storm subsides
New dawn brings sunshine,rays be our guides.

Rain becomes sprinkles,spots on the ground;
No more rain,grass and leaves turning brown.

Thunder and lightning,a soft summers'rain;
Blue skies,warm sunshine is all that remain.

Sun and water don't you know,Rainbow Rainbow

This is one of my favorites so far. The rhymes are so well put together and the imagery I receive from this fine verse is pleasantly explicit. Always, Laura

We all have a dark side, and I do believe yours is more justified than most, considering why. Of course I will love you dear brother still. Love, Shar

Absolutely gorgeous poem! I agree with John here completely. As far as Carol goes, I will check with Rhoda tomorrow to see if she knows anything, as they have written to each other at some point in the past. I will write back to you if I hear anything. Have a good night. Love, Shar xoxo
