The Purpose Of Rain

 

All of our hearts become hot coals

At least a couple… hundred

Times in our lifetime

Due to getting burned

By the Satan’s blazing influence.

Left unattended the heat will

Set your world on fire

Till the soul is nothing but smoke

In the eyes of the Lord.

 

Oh but heaven, glorious heaven

Reigns over us all,

So when the angels open up the skies

To let it rain on us,

There is a divine purpose,

 For it is not just to keep

Our Mother Earth soft and nurturing,

But also to extinguish the flames

That incinerates the faith

Of God’s children

And wash away the ashes

That blinds us from seeing

Our stairway to enlightenment.

Such beautiful thoughts shared in this uplifting poem Dale. Quite inspiring! I've always loved the rain - and the day after - when everything is fresh and clean and new.

this make me think of that old song I love "Fire and Rain" , I liked the concept behind it, rain for dowsing the fires of a soul, i'll buy it.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

A great song to remind you of… I am much flattered. Thank you.

gee, lots of things get in the way of seeing that stairway, don't they?
it's a wonder that once we find it...we still have the strength and resolve to ascend...
but then that is where faith comes in.
nicely expressed, Dale.
