A Rainy Day

Everything's soaked to the bone.

Raindrops slip off my hat's brim

And trickle down my chin.

I can hardly see my hand,

Which stretches out in front,

Helping to guide as I stumble along.

The thunder rumbles and roars

And here I stand, absolutely frozen to the core.

Lightning came first, flashing across the sky,

But I hardly notice as I hurry home to dry.

As I dash through the front door,

I thank God for the thunders roar,

For the rain that pours,

And for the lightning that soars.

I dry off quick and go to the fire.

Here I sit, wrapped up and tired.

I grab a book and begin to read

Of dragons, and knights, and great big decrees!

My head nods as I begin to doze,

Not thinking of my worries, nor my woes.

Instead I dream of the glorious day

That God brought rain my way.

You were able to caption your experience and still thank GOD for bring the blessing upon you despite the struggles you faced on a rainy day.
