Through rainbows and rain








Though words lead to
illusions
transparent upon verses,
unique remain the feelings
shared, confided
tucked into hearts.
In spite of distance, your
words kindle smiles,
unlock veiled thoughts and stay
safe in my mind.

In exchange, I offer you
my hand (even though so far)
to brush away your sorrow
and balm your eyes
so they can see a better tomorrow
after the rain.























Author notes

To my dear friend Rj, a poet I had the luck to meet on his first day on this site.

    This is a beautiful and touching poem that reaches out to another, kind words from a kind heart. Very well done! Write on dear Poet.

    You have been Hoodwinked by the Poetic Bandits today because WE CARE!

    This sings of Mari,
    in perfect word-tunes.

    A wonderful tribute.

    A single smile, a single day
    Who knew with time that it would stay
    A single hi, no written script
    That hand extend, now as life hits

    Hugs...Eddy

    You met Rj on day one? Wow. I bet the ones I met were all crazies who wrote cutting poems and wicca stuff...sorry all you wiccans but you are what you are.

    Send hate mail to :

    Nothing better than a kind word, during tough times. I know you've done that for me and I also remember how Mi helped me out when I first came back to Maine. Who told me this: "Don't try to fix it, just listen?" Whoever it was gave be one of the best lessons of my life...that and it's twin..."It's not about me, so I should just shut my mouth and listen."

    Anyway, beautiful words---we all want to be liked and to know that people like us...in my case I am pleased if they can tolerate me.

    First day...I don't know what is more remarkable, that you have a friend from your first day, or that you actually remember that fact...as you know, I wouldn't remember it.

    One for you, one for Rj, but tell him you gave it to him...we guys don't do that sort of thing.
