rain crashing against the window and I couldn't sleep so
I took in the storm from the back porch and
watching the branches bend but remain firm, yet
swaying in the gusts
I remember that on this morning, so long ago,
life changed forever.
Life's storms were over and replaced with only
the most brilliant, brightest light
and while the cool mist of rain
wets my face I realize now
I am thankful, grateful, and I can dance knowing
I'm firmly rooted and
You were my saving grace.
