Just an old poem of mine today. Enjoy!
When the Stars Fell Like Rain
I heard the Night sky to me
As a sailor hears the sea
A piercing cry in the stillness of the dark
I stretched out below her
Gazing up at her brilliant form
Her children, the stars, sang out with her
Echoing her song
I let my mind carry me past the homes around me
Past the street lights trying to wash out her glory
In their song I hear the melody of God’s design
As chorus and verse waxed and waned
Harmony and rhyme washed over me
Like waves upon the shore
The song softened
My soul stirred as I’ve not felt before
A ghost of a whisper
The voices continued
Steady and precise
The beat pressed on
Subtly the volume increases
The crescendo bursts forth
A waterfall of joy
Drowned me in its deluge
To the East
Three stars flare and fall
Their voices lifted in praise
To the South
Two stars flung themselves across the horizon
Their song a song of triumph
The Earth joined in the song
The stars fell like rain
A sound the world has never known was heard
God sang to us that night
His love for us in every thing
And the stars fell like rain
Washing over me, cleansing my soul
I cried out in worship to my King
Bowing before His awesome wonders
His love enveloped me
And the stars fell like rain
grace, peace + hope
grace, peace + hope
-Bear
