The Scent of Water

Veneration is done for anointing.
The earth requires an anointment.

The breeze takes the heat from our faces.
We walk as a caravan that must migrate.

Our faith is with God and our belief is concentrated on a better day.
For there is, hope to embrace and a grandeur spirit to take place.

For the Lord is our shepherd, as natural disaster takes, a mind is phased.
Contemplated is the prophecy of our tragedy.

The scent of water is in the air.
The ground is in a drought.

We are strengthened by God in our will to live.
The rain will fall.

This storm of life will be over and done.
Thus, a new day has come.
