Before You the Rain

Before You the Rain

Before you the ancient rain
warmth on your back, you stand and think
how few the words
a man needs in life
You think of him who sees all this, and him
whose face is the wind, and the falling of the leaves, and rain
tapping the glass
 

Before You the Rain

Before you the ancient rain
Warmth in your back, you stand there and think
How few are the words
that a man needs in his life
And think about him who is witnessing all this and him
whose face is the wind, and falling leaves and rain
that which is tapping the glass
