WHEN THE RAINS COME

I didn’t know where this feeling came from but for once I had
hope that everything would be all right. The clouds had darkened
and covered the sun. I knew the rains were coming. One of the
few things that made me happy for a brief moment in my life.
Besides grandmother’s presence, something could put a smile
on my face and conceal my pain. I loved walking and running
about in the rain. I always had this feeling that I was being
watched and cared for any time it rained. One of the little things
that fascinated me; a rainy day.


Thou art my redeemer
As I lay enslaved in the spoils of war
Oblivious did I stand in a ferry
Awaiting your one soft call
I lay lost in a vast wilderness
Yet you come and bring me joy
I feel so alive as I prance about
Her and there under your everlasting embrace
But now it seems your time has come
To take my smile away and bring the sun back
But even still, I await your next fall
Till the winds take my calls
As I rejoice to your new coming
Rain, rain come again.
