the essence of rain

the rain falls down around me
it has a sad and happy effect on me all at the same time
the coolness of its touch on my skin and face feel shocking and refreshing...
i am refreshed
the smell makes m nose tingle and sends a shiver down my spine
it is soft...but the closer it gets the more intense it is
i would stand in it forever if i could
down poors...sprinkles...just stand in it and enjoy every second of it
Your creativity astounds me
never do You make one storm the same as another
i stand-rain falling down around me-wondering how You can have so much creativity and beauty in a simple storm
now the thunder rolls across the sky
...it shakes my soul
...it sets my sense on fire
i feel Your power flow through it...and the rain that's falling all around me
to my right a streak of lightening ripping apart the dark clouds and the rain
my soul and senses my very being is ablaze...elctrified by every drop...exploding with every flash of lightening...crumbling with the shake of the thunder
lightening to my left cracks the sky into a million pieces...making a map across the darkness...one only the birds can follow
You are my map
i lose sight of You sometimes...only to have You flash across the darkness in my mind...mapping my path...engraving it into my soul
the rain is still falling around me
i feel You in every drop
i want this rain to keep falling...
falling all around me...
seeping into the depths of my being
drenching my body and soul...drowning out all my pointless thoughts
the rain still falls down around me
im totally taken by Your awesome beauty...Your unbelievable creativity
i watch the rain fall...
i feel the rain fall...
