Rainy Day Smile

Eric James Baisden

The quite of a summer shower
Gentle drops on window panes
Sleepy eyes in gentle hours
Drifting mind in day dreams sway
Rain drops shine like summer diamonds
Shining bright on rainy days
Breathing shallows: quiet, simple
Calming sense of come what may
As I smile on this rainy day
