Paying Attention

the storm blew through
sound breaker barriers
across my roof of trees
and multiple gutters,
the storm blew through
and then came rain
sticking leaves to sandy tar
and clogging every drain


but this was fall
and
the storm blew through
with it came much,
good
we should feel
god bless us all

we need a harvest
and
the storm blew through


praise his rain
and the sun it follows

what gave this
was generous indeed
watch the crops
they were dying
now grow
