A symbol?
Maybe so.
A tear from God?
I think so.
It comes out of nowhere
And leaves all the same.
A way of God showing
His anger and pain.
It may come down light
In a drizzle form.
It may come pounding down
Like during a storm.
In the summer, we see it as water droplets
In the winter, we see it as white snow.
Sometimes it comes down so fast
It causes the rivers to rise and flow.
Rain is like a tear from God
To show us his acknowledgement?
To let us know we've done wrong?
To punish us for our sins?
It's a force of nature
Beyond our understanding.
But without it
Where would our world stand?
This is a poem I wrote while searching for answers to why there was so much flooding happening that year.
