For each year counting
Is another to waste
Time quickens
At success to pace…
And we are not here
Or even gone
Just finding a path
Of everything wrong…
Not out of perfection
Or even guilt
Just moving on
While the earth does tilt…
And all things move
Even while standing still-
Too late to notice
Only time does kill.
Skies rumble
Listening to their talk
Believing in the voice
Of temper and life
Spring and summer
They warn
And test the living
Bring back the dead
With a power
Only God would know.
Oh hail no
What did you say?
How dare you try…
All will pay.
Windshields will crack
Roofs wills dent
Insurance is taxed
Money is spent.
Never deny
Or ignore my power
As more than rain
Will fall in this shower.
Storms rage
Is it Heaven or Hell?
Satan’s game
Or warming tell?
We fight to know
And believe in kind
Like so many others
Who wish to rewind.
The answers are hidden
In Present’s past
We can pretend for now
But nothing lasts.
Heed the warnings
Spare the truth
Protect what’s important
Future fruits.
For in the darkness
There comes a light
And even then
Waits Future’s fight.
Old man
Running another run
One life over
Another has begun.
Those who morn
Must only keep open eyes
As he comes and goes with the wind
Carefully roaming in stormy skies.
The storm passed
with remnants of wonder.
Nothing to fear-
Lots to ponder.
Beyond this sky
Is a worse fate…
May they all go inside
To safely wait.
The wonder of mother-
The unknowing of nature-
To warn us all
And challenge the maker.
No sense of justice
Or making things right…
But a beautiful ending
As the storm passed tonight.
Gravity’s invention for life-
Pushing liquid droplets to the ground-
Feeding multiple needs…
While cleaning the air;
And should you try hard enough-
It can wash away despair.
Rain’s influence-
More insistent than the mind-
With innocence too.
Virga may steel success…
Just as thoughts hijack plans-
Luckily virga is more temporary.
Thank you umbrella-
For allowing me to stay outside…
Everything is cleaner this way.
