CAUGHT IN A STORM

 

The sky blackened     

Dark as night

Then comes the flash

Of a Lightning strike

As the storm ensued

Panic struck me

Thunder rattled overhead

I fell upon me knees

I prayed to God

Spare me this day

I prayed to God

To chase the storm away

Then the skies lightened

And silence was all around

A gentle rain fell

As I raised from the ground

Then everywhere about me

Cherry blossoms blew

Like gentle pink snow

And immediately I knew

You had heard my prayer

You had protected me

You where there in every petal

Of that cherry blossom tree
