Rain Clouds

Rain clouds, grey
Roll across the sky
Cold wind, blowing in my face
Trees bend and sway
Quiet before the storm
A rustle in the leaves
Hearts pound
Rain clouds, upon me
Cleansing my soul, rain pours over me
Mingles with my tears
Washing away guilt and pain
Rain clouds, parting
Sun shines through
A rainbow smiles
Rain clouds, drifting
Roll across the sky
