Poem Artwork

The shhhhhhhhh of rain
silences all in its falling:
none dare disturb the holy
hush except a rumble of
thunder echoing through
celestial corridors of sky.

Congregants below kneel
in thanksgiving, for God
heard their cries for mercy.
He opened up the Heavens,
what had been sewn shut ...
beautiful, lifegiving rain!

(c) 2009, Karla Dorman (3/11)

Wao! Just when one thinks you've used up all there is to describe the weather, you go and do it again. This is your gift!

"the shhhhhhhhh of rain". Now THAT'S neat! Perfect description! Very well penned; glad to see the rain too, although it kills our bodies (and makes our feet wet! EWWW! LOL)! Well done, Karla; brava! Love the piccy, too; sorta looks like a heart in the heavens! :) Or an angel!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin, Karen Lynn. :D
