Rains of the Season (A Poem)

Rains of the Season



Silence turns from golden

when waiting for an answer

a verdict, a diagnosis

or the condition of one you love.



Instead silence equips a mind

with room for fearful wonder

tipping scales of hope...I quickly digress

an angry pendulum swings in my head...

void of precious rhythm



Powerless in the fate of another

So certain I know what's best

Anger builds from within

Turning, twisting, finally wilting from sheer exhaustion

Wrapped in tear-laden, blue papers of sadness



Yet, strength comes from beyond me



Faith.



Knowing the outcome lie not within my shaking hand

Praying for quiet and the sweet grace to understand

my thoughts, wrestle violently with simple peace



Turning markedly away from the fear that grips me

to do what is in front of me now

still certain there is a reason

although purpose remains blind to me this moment



I know...



Rains come within their season





DeAnna





Inspiration:

Leviticus 26:4

�I will send you rain in its season, and the ground will yield its crops and the trees of the field their fruit.�
