PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Written January 30, 2004

I wrote this poem while lying on my bed just before dawn. (I think reading my Bible) The birds' singing was so relaxing and revealed the peace that nature provides which is truly a gift from God. The strange thing was that as the sun came up, it sort of drowned out the sound of the birds. How can eye stimulation drown out ear
stimulation? It was amazing. Throw out the nerve pills! God has a healthier remedy.

The weather really is a clear picture of how we are.  There needs to be more rainbows in this life.  Maybe we aren't looking hard enough though.  Lots of metaphores in this one, lots of personal feelings hidden deep inside, too.   I wish there were less storms, but what is life without storms...and without storms, there would never be the rainbow. We all just need to learn how to react to the storms so that those rainbows can still come out and be seen....and I'll stop typin now and let you decide for yourself what this poem means!
