Plummeting from heaven It soaks to the bone Forbidding even a hint of light Insanity precedes Misery follows Each earthbound bombshell landing Accompanied by clouds Come undrying floods Memories of day dim to darkness Drops turn into oceans And hope disappears At least the coldness is faithful It's pounding on rooftops The dizzying madness Drowns the sure world of yesterday Splitting the shadow A lone ray of sun Brings unwelcome taunts of brilliance From midnight comes dawn Downpours retreat But dampness never is lifted. Although it is cold Leave inconstant light It mocks perpetual sorrow -Danielle Fisher
