Some Rain Must Fall
The sorrows and sins of our lives fall like rain
When cloudy skies and fate darken ahead
Some drops full of sadness, others filled with pain
Tribulations and trials in the tears we’ve shed
From a brief summer drizzle of malaise
And long showers that bring drenching downpour
To torrential hurricanes that last for days
Each holding its own tragedy in store
We cannot choose our days filled with sunny rays
Nor when cloud and gloom will shadow our head
We have no control of when life frets and frays
Sun succumbs to passing showers instead
And when those rains of life fall so hauntingly
The sun beyond the clouds still shines and know
That, when dark skies part, you will repeated see
The love of the sun and life’s beautiful glow

Thank you, dear Yasmin! I appreciate all your kind words and support!
every cloud has a silver lining; every rose has its thorns; we can choose to focus on the good or the bad in everything…
Too true!
Brad this is another beauty. So true we can not control the tragedy that surrounds us but we can hold on to the good and appreciate it when it is there. Such truth and beauty in this piece. Have a wonderful day Brad sending you love and hugs and wishes for sunshine and happiness. Joni
Thank you, Joni!
This is a moving piece, Brad. Like so many other things in life, there is unpredictability. I suppose that’s why life is the greatest reality show ever invented.
Thank you, Pete!
