Before
Thunder rumbles and black clouds glower
Sleek droplets fall, washing all
Rainbow arcs, send eerie lighting
Coloring the majesty, sunsets call
She is moving on, harvesting wisdom
A lifetime of stories ready for writing
Threads for weaving, making meaning
Weaving tapestries enlightening!
A piece of this and a bit of that
Stitched together, each one selecting
Memories and other realities
Moments caught in time, reflecting
You won’t regret it, looking back
It’s good for you, they often say
Write it down; tell the story
We’ll read it all some other day!
It is my wish, my sanctuary
My journal writings, to explore
How writing shows the truth in my world
And reading brings the truth to yours!
“reading brings the truth to yours” – if books are windows to the world, then writing is window to the heart of the author.
Is this rainy season down under?
