Feel The Clouds

Feel the clouds
come rolling in 

Hear the thunder clap

Experience rain
pouring down

Cleansing all 

So once again 
the world looks fresh 

Growing

Reaching for the stars 
because of rain

Life-giving rain.

The Snow Flies Quietly Down

Sometimes
The snow flies quietly down
Melting before
It touches frozen ground.

No thunder clap
Heralds the falling down
No flash of blazing light
Lets us know.

No roar or rush
Of coming water no
Just snow
Snow quietly falling down.

Watching The World

Watching the world in front of me
Busy, gracefully happy
It is what it is and can be.

Part of my dream, my fantasy
Not a word is said, no thunder clap
Only conveyed heartfelt courtesy.

With this and that sitting here quietly
Smiling joyfully
Watching the world unfold in front of me.
