Poem Artwork

Relief from the Heavens came
down drop by drop by drop ----
thank You, God, for rain.  It's so

amazing watching grass green
up after dying all Summer long
---- honestly thought it was

beyond saving.  People were
laughing, praising, celebrating
---- throwing their hands up in

the air.  They didn't mind getting
wet, and neither did I.  It was
almost like having Church ----

a holy moment.  Answered
prayers fell from the skies ----
we are grateful You heard us.

Karla, your needs were finally met and the heavens opened up to serenade your part of the earth with life giving rain -- I hope this reduces the chance for future wild fires -- I bid you love and peace my dear friend -- Jon Michael

Karla,
AMEN to this write. I've been though that, needed rain so badly...and God always sent it just when we needed it the most. His eye is on the sparrow so I know He watches US. God bless you, dear lady.

Love and Peace,
~Linda

Hi Karla. I totally relate to this. Indiana was equally bad. We could fry eggs on the sidewalks.
