Rain Will Make the Flowers Grow

Rain falls

It beats against the world

Trees,

Houses,

Roads,

They all feel its unrelenting pace.

The world screams

“I want sun!”

For they can only see that which is wrong.

The sea when it rains is beautiful

The sky when it rains is joyous

that which it gives is life giving

Struggle gives life meaning

Rain makes the flowers grow

From the pouring rain comes

Waterfalls

Fields

Gardens

Trees which bear fruit

From the storm comes the waters of spring,

the floodwaters comes rich soil,

the soil comes new life

So while the world rages against the rain

I will rejoice in the storm,

because of the fruit the heavy winds

and the pouring rain

Produce in me.

I will give praise for the kindness,

love,

strength,

and wisdom,

That is nurtured by the rain

For rain will make the flowers grow
