Rain

I love days like thiswhen to look out the bedroom windowbecomes a gift in witnessingthe dance and symphonybetween life and natureover the pond into the distanceof other lives, mountains, and emptiness.I sit in awed and marvelbetween this moment and the nextcurled up on my bed.This overcast is a reminderto go within quietness --the vast stillness --as it engulfs me in one second.I am in love.I am in complete surrenderof cool wetnessand so very grateful that I can be hereto travel the journey betweenGod and the earthall while closing my eyesand whispering a single prayer.
