Storm
Nahum 1:7
“The LORD is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; and He knows those who trust in Him.”
An autumn storm
out of the blue
branches breaking and cracking, flying crazy arcs into the rain
blown leaves circling columns like a conjured spirit
Rain rattles the tree trunks,
Ice cold, promising winter
Where do they come from
These storms?
Deliver us from them
Be our safe shelter
Let it roar outside
Inside, give us rest
and walk abroad through the weather
calm troubled water
let us walk in the sun
again.
