The Flowers in the Window Box

The flowers in the window box are blooming

Bright smiles beckon as if they were to say

the sound of raindrops you hear resuming

are timeless traces of another day

 

And in the past when a lonely raindrop

left a chill upon dreams, the window pane

was cold and damp but now the rain has stopped

It’s time to dry the teardrops that remain

 

Though vision blurs there’s still unseen beauty

gentle in it’s embrace, much like sunbeams

weaving soft rays of light, so you can see

the colors of a rainbow paint your dreams

 

There won’t be rain today or tomorrow

for blooming in the window box…a flower
