raindrops running through the riverbend

tripping one over the other

in their memory upon memory

of loss, pain and suffering

raindrops running through the riverbend

deep moments of yesterday

loved ones who left

piercing their heart with no return

raindrops running through the riverbend

thoughts of things done and others left undone

letting go of the failures of the past

running forward to refresh their soul

raindrops running through the riverbend

take courage and go forward

doing better than yesterday

in their longing for tomorrow
