Water dripping down my hair, my face, my eyes,
drops of water on my lashes,
sliding off my nose;
I drink in this rain,
thoroughly soaked,
and thoroughly wondrous,
inside and out.
I drink in this wonderful feeling
tentatively but gratefully accepting this longed-for forgiveness
- like a farmer would accept this rain after a season of dry and parched land -
and relief washes over me,
as the rain continues it's healing.
Good feeling of what foregiveness feels like.
