Spring

The storms that
make me wake and shake -
and give my heart
a pounding earthquake....

have given back
a brand new floor,
new walls, new roof -
a steel front door.

Something to learn
from the terror of fear -
every storm has a lining
and this one is clear...

Life can be turbulent
scary and severe -
but the clouds have a lining
the message is clear...

There will always be
a brighter day -
for any problems
that come your way.

Face each nightmare
that might haunt you -
for after the storms
rainbows shine through.
