When we had a storm

Listen, the rain has come
And the first drops patter along the roof.
Listen, God has tuned his strings,
And the music is about to begin.
Thunder plays the drums,
And lightning has the symbols, crash.
The trees have got up to dance,
While wind sings and claps her hands.
The wind rides high,
Sand covers the stay,
And memory reaches inside me,
To touch days gone by.
I do not love you,
And I wish you would not love me ;
I worship you,
And I hope you will forgive me.
There is a storm in the sky today.
The sand races along the land,
And the moon has grown dark with fear.
The clouds bulge with pent-up rain.
Any my eyes burn with unshed tears -
Because I am thinking of you, and how,
I have sent a storm racing through your heart.
I stand alone with bowed head now,
Hoping the lightning would strike me, and
Either in a blinding flash consume me,
Or burnish my black soul, into
Something bright & beautiful for you.
