Dancing in the Rain

Dancing in the Rain

A Poem by Melinda McQueen





























Life is filled with ups and downs,

The Whys, the Hows

Leave you wondering what’s it all about,

As you pick up your heart from the ground.

 

Through the storm,

Something holds onto your arm.

And though you may feel pain,

Dance in the rain.

 

The rhythm and tune

Is about the true you.

The beat rolls on,

Giving life to your song.

 

At times you feel so lost

And you feel alone.

This is when you pray,

Dancing in the rain.

 

For God on High

Is ever on your side.

He will fill your heart with joy again,

As love to your soul He sends.

 

When trials come

May His will be done.

For it releases His glory

And He becomes a part of the story.

 

So, take a breath

As in the Savior you rest.

The Lord is your stay,

So, keep dancing in the rain.

I agree.
"So, take a breath
As in the Savior you rest.
The Lord is your stay,
So, keep dancing in the rain."

Beautiful work my friend! "So, take a breath
As in the Savior you rest.
The Lord is your stay,
So, keep dancing in the rain."

I really wish the site let you wee the writing category on a piece. This sounds like a song in my head as I ready it. It's very beautifully crafted with the "dancing in the rain" refrain scattered through just enough to keep the writing fresh.
The only place i saw a hiccup is on the second to last line. "The Lord is your stay" although I know what you are talking about given the previous line, this one is awkward sounding. It's almost like you didn't know what to put there so you chose something. This is not natural wording, so it's something to consider. ~jan
