We all have those times,
Those times when life gets hard.
The more we try
The harder things can get,
And we try even harder,
But things only get worse.
It is like a storm brewing.
The clouds get darker,
The thunder gets louder,
Lightning strikes at us.
Things just cannot get worse,
Then the rain comes
And tries to wash us away.
But we must always remember
That our lives will be good
Once that you realise
That every storm runs out of rain.

Good write Gold.
In every storm... don't forget your brolly, I say!
Thanks Orchi.
Skin is waterproof.

Above every storm the sun still shines
It certainly does SC.

firstly
your video showcased
probably the most emotive, interpretation
of this piece of music..
when you consider
how many hours of practice
in solitude
and then together in painstakingly
exhaustive effort
to cultivate such symphonic
synchronicity
while each, Genius
plays with so much individual flair
emotionality and musical ambition
you just have to, surrender
to the wonder of classical music..
I know
people want to label it this or that
slow or imperialist or privileged or whatever
but for me, when its done with such
fervour and innate, passion
you just can't deny its capacity
to emote, to heal
to showcase, Life:
in prismatic Purificatory!
(as for your poetry
I too live life
with wellies, ready
and umbrellas, steady
'while tapdancing, feet
river dance like those Brave
Irish
full of Pride and Defiance
in the face of oppressive
ill-fate...!')
thanks Andy, simply
a joy to read, watch, listen
and try, to heed
Your words are much appreciated Mek, thank you.

I'm sure that you have seen out some thoroughly good hidings from storms lashes and, just as I have, been made all the stronger for it.
This is one of your finest pieces Andy and it goes straight into my favourites to be read again and reflected upon.
I certainly have come out of some good storm hidings d a as have you but we are still here and life is great.
Thank you for you kind words.
Andy
I think sometimes you need the storm just to realise the potential that life has to offer. We all go at a hundred miles an hour now, so anything that makes us reflect is not a bad thing.
God thoughts Paul and very true. Thank you.
Andy
Had absolutely no idea you had stormy moments, Andy. 😊
Advice, however sound - liked it very much.
We all have the odd stormy moments but they are soon overcome Dave.
Thank you.
Andy
Love that thought - storms teach us how to dance in the rain. - How very true Andy.
Thank you Fay - would you like a dance?
Andy
Ah now that would be fun ! - - Thank you most kindly for your offer dear Andy and when the next summer rain storm begins I shall be waiting for your knock on my door.
Wonderful meditation Andy - thank you for sharing!
Thank you Jon, much appreciated.
