'Raindrops'
(c) Carole Young 2013
Falling from the sky
Falling in my mind
Painting different colours across the sky, beautiful
Like diamonds, they shine
Opaque on the window frame
Whispering my name
Sparkling through the years, it seems
Opening the door to
Many a day, many a year
Nay, centuries pass us by, we wait
To see if the rain will end
And the sun will rise once more.
