Bitter Memories of Dark Rain's Wrath There was such warmth in your winter fires enchanting love in your daily talks. Sweetest glory in all your fantasy desires such treasured memories in our walks. Spring held the beauty of that smiling face as rising flowers burst the ground. Renewal of life matched your loving grace as classical music was your sound! Yet cold Winter came as it always must do bringing in chills that ate away. The breath of life in hearts and in you sick and foreboding a dark day. Previous joys and pleasant days cherished dearest touches grew so old. A darkness formed, soon our love perished love's ashes rest there so cold! A nightmare, such bitter and cutting stains death brought its deep cutting pain. Eternal epic loss, that nothing ever explains why our love drowned in dark rain! R. J. Lindley June 02- 1973
