February 22nd, 2009
The sky was blue but now the clouds are rolling in
rain starts to come down and is coupled with high winds
the trees are bending downward, hear them snap and fall
But the calmness in the midst of it all.
I stand still against the wind and against the rain
without sorrow, I feel no worry, shock or pain.
Experiencing numbness, no movement I make.
Trying to move forward, a step I’m forced to take.
With the rain coming down down harder, I walk ahead
everything’s behind me, the storm to me is dead.
Around me now is sunshine, and everywhere is green
Moving forward, I remember what I have seen
Out of the terrible wind, hail, sleet, rain, and storm,
A new, powerful, beautiful self has been born.
