Our prayers must patter down
Upon the House of God
Like the raindrops of
A dreary Sunday shower
Plummeting downward with desperate alacrity
And splattering from the inertia
While God himself
Settles into slumber
Satisfied with the answer
His roof gives to raindrops

Yo Bladecatcher,

Roofs that don't lead are the cat's meow.

Bladecatcher - It must be comforting to know that even when HE sleeps, prayers still come. Very nice work Bladecatcher. Namyh
