April Showers

river is swollen
sky refuses to stop crying
gray skies match my eyes

Just needed a reminder today.

  1. Another beautifully expressed poem, Katherine!

    Peace to you, my friend.

    P.S. For some reason, when I clicked on the video it said uploader has not made this video available in your country.

  3. @Ron: I reloaded it. Not sure if that will help. It is a video by Nickleback. I heard the song this morning on the radio and the words resonated with me today.

  5. @Kathe W.: I am not sure if the video will open now or if it is limited viewing in the US due to Canadian content. Thanks for trying anyway.

  15. @Joybird: It seems like rain has been the dominant theme for April (when it didn't snow). Hard to shake those gray skies out of soul some days.

  16. @Pattiken: Hugs to you too then Patti. The song was enough to make me pensive, but the video forced those tears that were threatening over the edge.
