The Memory of an Unexpected Rain

The time we left the little house
In a whispering rain
And ran to the shore,
Umbrellas in hand
I became, again, a child,
My daughters, dearest friends
We three, splashing, fully dressed
In the lapping waves
And laughing.

The experience I imagined in full sun
Sand glittering, shore shining,
A perfect day at sea,
Dimmed, bending to the
Shimmery silver and muted beauty
Of an unexpected rain

If you feel you feel a strong connection to my writing and want to buy me a cup of coffee (or pitch in to pay for pizza for my 8 kids while I am locked away in my office writing!), take a look at my Patreon. This is where your support has a powerful impact on my day to day life. And thank you so much for visiting my blog. I feel like it is my little house where I can always invite friends over. So glad you came by today.
