I Will Wear Rain

(Hit the L key to view LARGE)

 

This shot and poem are for my sweet friend, Kelly Dilello-Smith who lost her little granddaughter, Molly. Though the shot was taken back in August, it feels right to illustrate the poem and offer my sadness and love:

 

I will wear rain today

the silvered tears of angels

spilled in sorrow

and wrapped about me like fog

a gray pall of tenderness and loss

my feet sliding through frost-laden grass

of a summer gone too soon

I will listen for the sound

of angel wings

between the rustle of falling

leaves . . .
