MISSING MY FRIENDS AND LOVE ON A RAINY DAY
Days of rain,
And even more rain,
Taking me to times of yore.
Childhood joys,
Time spent with my friends,
Music, laughter, carefree mirth.
Chess and songs,
Along with home-made snacks,
No worry, no gloom, despair.
Three decades,
Have slowly slipped by,
And I feel it was yesterday...
All my friends,
Are quite busy now,
With families, work and cares.
I am sad,
As I remember
All those happy days of youth.
How time flies!
Is it only me who,
Feels and harps on memories?
Friends, first love,
Still reside inside me,
Ah, these bittersweet feelings!
It's cloudy,
And pleasantly mild,
Yet I crave good company.
All wrapped up,
In busy schedules,
None keen to meet again:
And enjoy,
The rainy weather,
Or to take a walk with me.
The breeze blows,
And cajoles the trees,
As the drizzle starts again.
Ah, this life!
How it makes me yearn,
For friends, love, merriment...
Beautiful,
Were days and nights,
When no worry bothered me.
Today too,
I am like I was,
But love and friends are not here.
What to do,
Other than taking trips,
Into the grand, lovely past?
Solitude,
Is reminiscent,
Of a girl and her sweetness.
She lives on,
In a much better world,
With angels of peace and joys.
However,
I wish I succeed,
In making my dreams come true.
One of those,
Is to be with friends,
And enjoy rain...make time stand still...
O my heart!
Dwell not on sadness:
Rebel not against your self.
God willing,
Joys, friends and love,
Will be ours again... very soon...
