And then there was silence.
Stillness filled the air,
a sense of calm descended
that once was never there.

The storm has passed again
and the clouds begin to break,
bringing signs of new life
waiting in its wake.

Waiting for the sun to touch the earth
and rejuvenation to commence;
seeds waken from dormancy
beauty is its own recompense.

As the rainbow stretches across the sky
as the earth repairs the destruction,
the warm,gentle sun and replenishing rains
aide to its own reconstruction.

The continuing,rotating circle of life;
The storms and healing sun rays,
adds to all that life can give
to each and to everyday.
