a glimpse of a raindrop
as the rain dances from the sky
descending, falling
from weighted clouds
they find indulgence
in newfound independence
exposure to the pressure of wind
exhilaration as they plunge
into an unknown destination
they plummet to the earth
receiving the impact
accepting a new life
We've finally been receiving much-needed rain! With warnings of a drought and making provisions for food rationing, everyone has started to become frantic. God provides all of our needs, no matter what! He knows how to protect his children, and he is giving us rain now, even if he didn't allow us any in the previous months. His plan for everyone and plan for our lives is perfect, and we need to keep our faith that He always provides for us.
The sound of the rain, for me, is soothing and tranquil. It inspires me to write and gives me a calm state of mine. Above is the poem I wrote while listening to the rain.
