~~~ Until the Storm Passes by~~~

Sitting by my window sill just enjoying

the sunshine and scenery that’s spread

so beautifully before me. I smiled for everything

seemed to be so fine and dandy .Then suddenly

without a warning it came, dark shadows

now smeared across the skies. Not a speck of

white in sight. Thunders roared and bellowed heavily,

lightning kept flickering and cracking wildly. The

raindrops fell profoundly pounding on my galvanized roof.

I ran to my bed for safety, I was wondering where did

this storm came from , there were no warnings,

everything seemed perfect just awhile ago, then to my

astonishment water was now seeping through my door

with swiftness. I ran to the door to take a peek

and to my bewilderment an enormous wave

just swept through the sky. It’s coming with speed

and momentum. My heart cringed with fear

I had nowhere to run and hide, all my family and

friends were nowhere to be found, soon the water

will gush through the door and my life will be

no more just like a ship wrecked upon the oceans

floor. I slammed the door and waited for my

fate, Then I remembered to whisper a prayer,

to Jesus because when everyone forsakes me He alone

shows how much He really cares for me. He alone can

calm the storms that are raging in my life.................

unexpectedly a light came shinning so brightly with

beaming colours of gold and yellow. There was sunlight

outside, I was happy for the storm had just passed me by

This poem connects how trials just appear in our lives
