Trickle,
Trickle, drip;
Sniffle.
Pitter-patter, pitter-patter;…
Like drops of rain
On a window-pane,
They cleanse the air….
So falls each God-appointed tear,
From a new hole burrowed by pain
Released in drops of salty rain
Washing the windows of the soul.
Penned: December 12, 1998.
Scriptural allusion: Hebrews 5:7-8; Psalm 147:3.
