Summoning Strength
January 12, 2013
Funny how it rained all day
When I seek the shelter of a shadow.
The monstrous clouds beg my retreat
Into the safety of my silent home.
My world is swallowed by a howling wind.
Mother Nature offers escape from responsibility,
But forgetting your duty
Does not eliminate its existence.
To recoil now would be weak.
Defy those doubtful whispers,
Summon the bravest troops,
Ignore the potential failure,
And face the storm.
Funny how it rained all day
Yet I still found the sun.
