"Rainfall"
May 1, 2013
Without this precipitation,
life as we know it
would cease.
It is the fuel of life.
Rain makes crops grow
Without this rain, we would never have the water we desperately need.
Why is such a beautiful thing, surrounded with darkness?
Yet, beams of light that come down when it rains.
Is that to show its power?
casts booms of thunder as if to remind how important it is.
Next time rain is in the forecast
Go out,
Dance in it. Rejoice in it,
The fuel of life has come down again.
