I am old but not so old

I have traveled to everywhere

And nowhere

From the beginning of time

To the ends of the Earth

I’ve encountered strange things

And run from the mundane

There is much before me

But nothing behind me

Though time has passed slowly

I am rapidly wasting away

The Pouring of the Rain ~ #poetry of #clouds

The clouds, though darkening,

Gray, hold back their tears, silently

Moving, across the skies, waiting

For the right moment, the one they

Hope never comes, the one when

The deluge of angst and fear, takes

Over common sense, drowning it

It is then, and only then, they sigh

And release, the pouring of the rain
