Rainy-Day Mindset.

Windows awash, waterfall mind drifting To long-ago times, warding off more tears She stayed out of sight hoping mood lifted Before day was done. Like raindrops, she Fearing the coming night, let wet dry, chased Away salt from her face and weeping stopped This mind-set must cease, shoulders be shaken And braced, this would not do, she adopted A new braver smile. He was away now.... So many months were to pass before hope Could begin and he be home again, - frowning She looked out at rain, and started to cope With the wait. Together they'd make it, - love Never minds either distance or time, proving Rainy-day mind-sets can be risen above.
