Waiting Out the Storm.
Just get through it.
Another day, hour, minute.
Hold fast. Hold on.
At times, the reasons. Why it matters.
Seem so far away.
Waiting Out the Storm.
To breathe hope back into life.
Stale bread into salad days.
Shatter the Night.
Embrace the Day.
Waiting Out the Storm.
No more wrong turns or tricky detours.
No “haste makes waste” decisions.
This time: the boring route.
Safe: can be a pleasure, not a curse.
Waiting Out the Storm.
The circle continues.
The sun always shines.
It has to be enough at times.
To remember and believe without question.
Those absolutes and affirmations.
Waiting Out the Storm.

storms happen…to think otherwise is folly….so it comes down to how we ride them out…gotta have rain to have rainbows you know…smiles…nice verse….
Very pretty! You picked a good shot to go with it.
I feel like I am in the middle of one of those storms at the moment … I like the flow of this one!
Hi Brian, You are the eternal optimist my friend or at least that’s how I perceive you from reading over at your blog. yes, rainbows do follow, the sun always shines…words to sustain.
Hi SandyL, I thought this was a perfect photo, found over at Flickr. That little bit of light, trying to shine through the grey sky. It feels like that some days, doesn’t it?
Hi Becca, I can relate Becca. I’m glad you enjoyed this poem.
Here’s to sunshine and pushing all kinds of clouds away, G
The sun always shines. It’s right behind those clouds, so true. Sometimes we have to wait for the good times to return. Love the poem. Inspiring words.
