rain rain don't go away

Clouds, grey and looming,
Sun rays try a-peeking;
Wind brings a chill,
Imminent rain suits the bill;
Droplets fall from the heavens,
Men seek shelter in taverns;
Drink away the gloomy weather,
Always hoping for the better.

But, we miss the point.

Rain brings life.
We are of the living,
We should welcome rain,
Glorious, life-giving rain.
Woe to he who does not realise,
What he has been blessed with.
Looming clouds prevent the sun from scorching,
Chill winds cool us down,
Rain washes away the dirt and stains,
And what can be more the opposite of gloom,
Than sunshine after the rain?

now and then, not just a friend

Life is like a coin...
heads or tails,
however it lands,
it is still God who flips it.

Also too is love like a coin,
many things are up to chance,
and we are faced with different opportunities,
but in the end,
are we daring enough to flip that coin?

Many happenings for now,
to what end, I don't know how.
What exactly to think of it,
jigsaw puzzle pieces trying to fit.
playing around with matters of the heart,
two unknowing performers playing the part.
will you honour me this dance,
you who put me in this trance?
it takes two hands to clap,
trust me honey, this is no trap;
so please let me clasp your hand,
course I wish to be more than just your friend.
