Spring rain brought with it, One Sac full of Joy

Spring rain brought with it,

One Sac full of Joy

That Quiet silky April evening,  

Signs revealed, its time to drop a rain, 

Shaped up well, round and transy, they all sent from above,

Speeding up their way into the atmosphere, so we could see

Sliding down the roofs, leafs, dripping down the tree leg, and lonely post boxes,

Down they reach, break into droplets and run along the streets.

There I am, quick flee, loosing myself into the green,

Up and Up and Up!

The Clouds could devour me,

Thunders Hammering,

The Squirrels Yammering,

Floating like a leaf, 

I see the trees shower, no Fee.

Remember the days I dint know truth from lie,

No one remain, did they all go down hill?

Only to cuss, let none care,

Thoughts burdened,

Heavy I turned, get

Down and Down and Down!

The Pour down,

Drench me whole, Yet

I see am dry,

There is rain everywhere,

No drop on me,

Run and Run and Run,

Splashes and Sloshes

Stop, I see a gift,

Scared and lonely down on the roads,

The ‘Sac full of Joy’ needed refuge

It crept indoors into my Heart.

Through the hole it made,

The blues escape

Those were like air trapped in a jar,

Now I’m light again.
