While we’re into sharing poems, here’s one of mine! (I’ll get back to your other posts, but it will take me a lot of time to type out the answers, and I don’t have a lot of that right now. 🙂

Watch the Rain

 

When life is dark with gloom,

With teardrops falling fast,

Splitting your heart with doom,

In darkness overcast,

Sit still and watch the rain.

 

Stand waiting for the storm,

Under the darkening skies,

Watching the lightning form.

Open your weary eyes

And fix them on the rain.

 

The skies send forth their tears—

As your bruised heart has done—

As sharp as falling spears,

Yet soon there will be none,

So sit and watch the rain.

 

Beyond the stormy wrack

The sky is light and clear

Though all is grim and black

Soon shall the sun appear!

Stand fast, wait out the rain:

 

Weeping is for the night,

At dawn it has no place.

When clouds have cleared your sight

The Sun will show His face.

So, Christian, watch the rain.
