A storm is brewing in the sky,
The air is cool and sweet.
It whispers to me things will change,
That all is imcomplete.
There is a peacefulness amid the wild
And blustering winds that blow.
I need not fear within this life,
These things I simply know.
Some find these storms unsettling,
Some fear and dread the rain.
I openly embrace them.
There is joy found only in pain.
Why do storms hold such beauty?
How do they calm my soul?
They feed my restless spirit,
That is all I know.
So blow sweet winds around me.
I love thy cool embrace.
Content I am to be here,
Until I behold His face.

I think the writer is stating that they have peace in God and know that they need not fear anything that can hurt the body. Pain is necessary for us to grow and it gives usstrength when we pull through tough times.Storms are a natural part of life and beauty can be found in them. Lightening storms in particular are awe inspiring. It's like God's own laser show put on just for us. The write says that he/she is content to deal with whatever life brings until she can be one with God.

I like it Debra! If I were to put it to music, I might make a couple of changes...
A light is shining in the sky,
It's voice is cool and sweet.
It whispers to me things will change,
That all is not complete.
There is such peace amid the wild
And blustering winds that blow.
I need not fear within this life,
These things The Spirit knows.
Some find these storms unsettling,
Some fear and curse the rain.
And lo your voice has come to sing.
There's joy to shelter me from pain.
Why do storms hold such beauty?
How do they calm my soul?
They feed my restless spirit,
When The Lord paints His bow.
So blow sweet winds around me.
I love thy cool embrace.
Content I am to tarry here
Until I see His face.

God does communicate in many ways, as a cloud, wind, burning bush, holy fire, light, spiritually, speech, touch, and more.
One day the rain would come
As tear drops
As Jesus said
That dreadful day
He's coming sooner then we think
What would tomorrow bring
I like your poem
perhaps storms are Gods feelings
when he hurts, or happy
perhaps he seeks out comfort
God likes to express himself, in all he does-
Keep up the good work, were all special in God's eyes,
were family

good
In desperate hope I go and search for her
in all the corners of my room;
I find her not.
My house is small
and what once has gone from it can never be regained.
But infinite is thy mansion, my lord,
and seeking her I have to come to thy door.
I stand under the golden canopy of thine evening sky
and I lift my eager eyes to thy face.
I have come to the brink of eternity from which nothing can vanish
---no hope, no happiness, no vision of a face seen through tears.
Oh, dip my emptied life into that ocean,
plunge it into the deepest fullness.
Let me for once feel that lost sweet touch
in the allness of the universe.

Mornin, I gotta believe Silent, yet i love her besides, yet i will recommend a pair issues without offense meant. It loves you too is an assumption, sometimes in a experience unclear, yet I easily haven't any difficulty with it fairly. not particular in case you want this to rhyme in couplets of in any respect as in loose verse, i might want to attempt this in couplets or quatrains in case you want it to rhyme, IE: L a million I mighta further reality to end the line, then bumped "discovered" to an L 3, or perhaps 4. not positive how flea relates, or that passage after? i imagine in some reverence to God i don't have protected "Ha" i'd too have not used foul, a minimum of not without yet another comma. besides I see it havin extra effect, truthfully fairly truthfully worth the attempt if ya edit it some.

Embrassing the storms of life shows a mature faith in the Lord. Very nice, thought provocing poem.

As I read it, I had the same thought as Tube Dude --that it ought to be set to music -- It would make a lovely hymn --maybe you could think of a chorus to be sung between the verses --find someone to write the music...I'd love to hear it being performed!

To answer to another poster here. Poems do not need to rhyme.
It needs a bit of work. But it is good. on a scale of 1-10
I give it a solid 5

Honestly?
It's a little ragged and choppy.
"A storm is brewing in the sky" has a nice rhythm, but "It whispers to me things will change" breaks the rhythm.
