Rain, the clouds are moving in
like shame they make the sunlight dim
their color black, like that of sin
with shades of backlit gray as trim

Thunder rolls across the land
crashing like Gods' marching band
leading with his mighty hand
symphony on the highest stand

Lightning rips across the sky
silently awaiting thunders cry
if we could look, or dared to try
we'd see Gods glory before our eyes

The mighty winds that howl and blow
carry rain and sleet and dust and snow
amazing power it has to show
but how it works, we'll never know

Constant changes, stopping never
will still amaze now and forever
it brings us death and life together
this hand of God we know as weather.

Strive for higher levels, if they seem out of reach... Grow, and they will get closer.

Oh, I love this one!!!!  Perfect analogy, ThUnDeRkYsS.  You've done a great job!  

All writing comes
by the grace of God.
