The Rain

It's been awhile, hasn't it? Never fear, I'm back...

Drip, drip, drip,
Drops of water,
Falling, falling, falling,
From the overcast sky.

Tiny droplets,
Splashing over me,
Carrying with them,
My pain, my anger, my strife,
To the ground.

This water from heaven,
Washing my sins away.
A feeling so pure,
I feel fresh,
I feel brand new.

The rain,
Soothing and cool.
Extinguishing the fire in me,
Evoking the peace from within.

Thank you,
O life giving rain,
Thank you so very much,
For taking away my pain.

I’m feeling better now.
The clouds have started to cry,
They have calmed my soul,
These showers from the sky.

Pouring from heaven,
A gift from above,
Giving life and restoring hope,
Preserving memories of love.

That was beautiful. This poem is really touching to me; it reminds me of when I wrote a poem about the rain.

It had the same thought behind it... you just put it in better words.

I am sorry I haven't talked lately... I didn't want you to deal with how I feel. Don't worry... I will email soon!

Eloquent and well said. Quite emotional as well, and poignant. Another excellent poem from the Zoo.

Glad to see that you're still bloggin.

Peace,
