IT  WAS  RAINING  AGAIN

It was raining again -

and I heard various people

complaining: “Enough!

Enough with the rain.

Enough with the pain.”

But ever since I read

about aquifers - those

big groundwater collectors

of water underneath us,

I welcome rain - lots of it.

I was hurting with hurting

people  again - and I heard

various people complaining:

Enough! Enough with the pain.
Enough with the rain.”

But ever since I heard about

our inner reservoirs - our inner

Living Waters - flowing from

Christ - those big absorbers

of pain within us - I’ll  be okay.
