Things To Come

After the raging 
   waters
        have subsided
    we are left
with much destruction 
        and despair
We seek guidance from 
     above
           and we 
             hope
            that 
     our eyes will be
soothed by a gentle rain
    which is spilling down 
     upon the land
                the stars above 
are now
      glittering in 
anticipation
      of a new - a better day
