For Patricia Wedel

https://www.writerscafe.org/PatricianCt423

I have been rained on today

it was cloudy

and really cold in the morning

somehow the weather

went to my heart

and I began to feel some kind of 

low

and tears welling up

and a dry throat

then I realized it was raining in my heart too

and a bit cloudy

Then I saw your message

that alone

has filled my heart with so much light

its no longer cloudy

and the rain has stopped

Thank you Pat for the love

I needed that

Thank you for reading

You've captured the magic of Pat. She writes the most delicious & slightly nonsensical nature ponderings (in her reviews) as a way to snap us out of our earthly cares for a minute, inviting us to take a feathery little flight of imagination with her. If I see several new poems in my newsfeed from different people, I'll click on Pat's first, becuz she makes my day! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Yes Pat is a light here

We need kind words dear Cassie. A rainy day when you are young. Can make us feel caged. But find a good book, write a novel. Hello my friend. I hope you are doing well and staying safe.

dearest Cassie ... our Spirit is awesome... like
Buttercups in the rain... we stand tall. The birds wear feathers that repel the rain ☔️ when
Storms come along.. When poetry is shared it is our umbrella and the other fellow is mellow once again. Every baby is born with a lovely Spirit.. it is obvious from the beginning... unencumbered by weather... we are on a Journey across mountains and through valleys
where Nature has shelter and provides berries and fish from mountain streams that run with clear water. You have inspired me with your gentleness and I thank you. truly, Pat

A beautiful heart-felt message in poetry which demonstrates the power of reaching out and caring, even on the internet. Hope you are still feeling better Cassie.
