Rondeau: The Rain Will Fall
©21-MAR-19, Olan L. Smith
The rain will fall this day in streams,
And time permits eroded dreams;
Depressed? Then join the rude uncouth
In depths of altered skies of youth;
Who smiles beneath appalling themes?
My sins and puzzles flow up streams,
My sins unhooked in broad esteems,
And who am I, the Author's Truth?
The rain will fall.
I die awash in hope's esteems
Immortal soul, the sin blasphemes,
Awaits a free and deeper truth
Who knows the depth of sin? Vermouth
For me! I live in darkened dreams.
The rain will fall.
