God sent something beautiful today
Right in the midst of a raging storm
Crepe Myrtle blossoms falling like snow
Pink, white and lilac, beauty to perform
They floated before my very eyes
And blew down the street in waves
Dancing and playing in a river of joy
Delicate beauty on the ugliest of days
Rage storm rage, but please let them stay
I needed the wonder of Your handiwork
You know how to sooth a breaking heart
With simple pleasure to take away hurt
Wondrous the majesty of Your creation
The power to calm an angry frothing sea
Then send delicate blossoms in a gale
To please and comfort a soul like me !!

I especially like this line "Dancing and playing in a river of joy" - we are finally getting rain and our crunchy grass turned green but I must say there are flower petals all over the sidewalk into the front of out house (I watered my flowers to they are doing well and now the wild flowers are blooming all over the yard too!)
Are you getting any rain yet?
