~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~




rain reflects the tears I’ve cried,
memories who’ve fought and died,
as this world continues in its pride,
forever unaware, will I always hide,
secrets who I’ll one day confide…

rain echoes the dew of the dawn,
after the night has finally gone,
revealing grace who takes a chance on,
reminding me of One to whom I’m drawn,
will I never silence the fear I often slip-on…

rain exposes the joy and the tears,
voicing the gentleness of the years,
remembering the beauty who endears,
inviting the soothing of One who cares,
angels are entertained, unawares…

rain ponders the moments of grace,
experiencing love for the human race,
like heaven, this joy will never erase,
music falls light across my face,
inspiring my heart to hear, just in case…

rain vibrates like the trembling kiss,
sweeter than it’s ever been, pure bliss,
freeing hearts to believe in this…
love from Him who we won’t dismiss –
He is the answer to prayers not amiss…

rain falls gentle, touching the soul,
lifting the heart to make it whole,
quieting every tear so we can extol,
praising the Creator, who is in control,
the One who gives grace, will always console…

rain pouring out its soothing poetry in verse,
with words and rhymes, my heart does converse,
shushing all the darkness with a heart not averse…
to the joy of knowing God who created the universe,
God who is light and love and who will disperse…

rain so peaceful it feels like His love being poured out
over the world, over the heart, over every doubt…
so that, believing completely, we’ll raise our voice with a shout!
