After the Rain

 
After the rain come the pretty clear blue skies
It’s like an offering from heaven’s bean pot
It brings a breeze like a fresh breath of hope
To hearts at an impasse, in dread or naught
 
After the rain the ground becomes saturated
Flowers, plants and trees then begin to bear fruit
These also feed all the little creatures and animals
The ongoing cycle that stems from branch to root

After the rain sound travels crisper and richer
Carrying with it a message from the universe
Listen carefully to the reverberations of nature
As they bring promise to reverse the adverse

If you pay attention you’ll see across vast distances
The mountains and valleys and all the landscapes
Our vision becomes clearer because after the rain
Creation gives inspiration to face and accept the fates
