The Storm

I feel the light breaking through the clouds
The sun beginning to dry up the tears
That flowed from the heavens
Just moments ago

I feel the warmth rising from the ground
The slippery earth regaining strength
Its fragile surface washed away
But foundation strong

I hear the birds once again returning to song
The harsh growl of thunder a memory
They are calling me back to peace
To tranquility's calm

I feel you returning to my deeply pounding heart
Bitter storm having nearly washed us away
Your arms gently envelope me
And I feel sunbeams

I think the storm has passed…
