The Rain

The Rain
by ~H~

The rain falls down
Like heavens' tears
To drown all our pain
And wash away our fears

We often cry out
To the heavens above
For hope or guidance
Or an infinite love

But not always do we receive
The help that we need
But that hope we must nurture
Like an un-sprouted seed

For the rain will fall down
And saturate our earth
And that seed we kept safe
To salvation will give birth

-End-
