Rainy Days Poems

Hickory Queen of the Petrified Forest was increasingly fabulous, 
Proud not arrogant, confident, not smug, and people came yearly to see her
She is like the statue of liberty, only prettier, one little girl said to her mother
Hickory Queen smiled from...Read More

Jumping puddles on rainy days
is my sidewalk exercise challenge,
leaping over the wet intrusion,
keeping my shoes dry is a delusion.

Jumping puddles on rainy days,
I pretend to be a high jumper of sorts,
competing in the Olympics is quite a feat
as I land...Read More

Every time my thoughts return to childhood, 
Images of her shimmer through my head.
Thinking back to the days when we both would
Go playing outside after we had read.
Rainy days would keep us inside instead-
Recess was never allowed on wet slides.
As...Read More

She is so exquisite
Even without make-up on her face
She is very special
Even if she lets others seem important
She is selfless
Even when the selfish surround her
She offers a lot of love
Even so, she needs it often
She has a big heart
Even though...Read More

the sharing of 
one's heart and soul
ain't no door mat
it is an instrument
a tuning fork -- at
times, a power tool
that destroys and builts

a sadness in a voice
may linger for a time
the same voice leaves
a trail of laughter, of
smiles in his...Read More

I am held in servitude 
as the chattel of love, 
I am completely subservient
to a powerful force.

I am a drudge who is obliged
to do hard work for love, 
I am determined to hold on 
to my influential master.

I will follow...Read More

In the absence of complication,
trials and tribulations become distant memories.
Above sapphire skies delight sanguine eyes -
inspiring forthcoming musings of the mind.

Words flow like rivers kissing mouths of the sea,
where an aubade of dawn creates waves of serenity.
In the purity of...Read More

Sunny skies are happy
   Cloudy skies turn me blue
Rainy days aren't lonely 
   under an umbrella with you

For yellow is a happy color
   while gray is definitely not
Blue can go ether way ---

My Taurus
How are you?
Haven't seen you in days
My Taurus
Do you think about me?
In your leisure time?
In your desires?

My Taurus do you know, I miss you?
Do u know How I hate ?
the antics of this ironic fate?
My Taurus 
You never wrote...Read More

Hold on true love coming your way. Showers of rainy days camouflage the tears on your face. Saturating the earth for life to continue for brighter dayz. Rain helping the earth to continue to grow. Cleansing the earth of the...Read More

The endless rainy days and nights
Leaving cold dampness in the air
Only grey clouds within my sight
Any form of happiness feels so rare

My thoughts and dreams a prison
No relief within my life so it seems
While I wish for any hopeful visions
As...Read More

I don't mind those rainy days
I can survive any old Monday
I like meeting new folks
and listening to silly old jokes

Be easy going and you get along
Be easy going and you end up strong
Why fight and worry living in a hurry
hating...Read More

Rainy days and stormy nights
Lord you have brought me so
very far. Through the heartaches 
and the many heartbreaks. Lord, I 
thank you for all you have done. I 
for the victories you've won. Lord 
you are...Read More

Outside was our go-to place.
We had homemade playdough.
Tiny play rolling pins.
Betsy Wetsy dolls.

In the summer we were outside 
Picking vegetables all morning.
But the afternoons were for swimming.
Either in the lake or the public pool.

Marbles was my game in autumn.
I was...Read More

There is a love which lives deep within
A genuine one which will never go away
No matter how one might try to release it
In our hearts and minds, we find it stays

Whenever another touches our inner being
While bringing their pleasant peace...Read More

I still think of you on rainy days
Imagining what you could have been
A twinkling faerie in the drizzling haze
Or dry and warm, staying in

You never came to be
And I have no right to mourn you
Blood-stained mass is all I see
When...Read More

Heavily broken bits strewn across the memories,
but tiny shards of life, shattered fragments,
arranged so carefully deep in her beleaguered mind.
Where once stood two reflections 
staring from the maquillage stained glass
now dances one illuminate soul.
Allowing the fading music to fill her,
as...Read More

A million memories
of a million kisses
my neck, my body...all over
kisses all the time

but, as the months
slowly turn into years
I have only a fading memories
... of a few

I wished
I saved some
for these
rainy days

I don't ony love you when you smile

I want to hold your hand if you cry

Even when I'm angry

It's next to you that I want to lie

I'll walk with you on rainy days

When everything is grey 

I'm not just a...Read More

 Its an old building of spires and dirty stucco 
 on Wednesdays filled with men 
 some in worn and dirty clothes that have not seen
 a washing machine for weeks or more,
 others keep blue, white shirts and...Read More

Dreams getting bigger to be with you
I want you the one to love me back
Trying hard not to reveal that it’s you
Oh no i have said too much
But you know? I Haven’t said enough

Considering this tell me your side
Tell me...Read More

Let me tell you...
They are big, they are tall
They are tiny they are small.
Teeth, that need brushing, 
Breath that needs gum.  
Toe jam like jelly?
And a big belly?  
They live at the school in books,
the museum on field...Read More
