    God's Tears

    When I was a young girl,
    I thought the rain was God's tears.
    I used to think that God cried,
    over all of the sadness and hate in the world.
    It rained today.
    It rained so hard it poured
    and I thought of this once more.
    What if each raindrop had a name,
    meant for someone's child or mother,
    someone's father or brother?
    I pondered this, as I watched the rain come down.
    It rained so long,
    untill the rain had flooded the ground.
    The sky turned black,
    it was dark with anger and pain.
    I couldn't get the thought out of my head,
    how God must be crying for all of his lost children
    and I stood there and cried with him, in the rain.

    Great...!! A wondeful peice and very out of the box...i like the way ur thoughts are in this poem. Very peaceful, yet anger since thats what God feels in this poem right? lol, but hands down u did a fantastic job!! i like it mainly because of the tale u turned into a masterpeice..i used to think the same thing and sometimes i even like to play along as if it were true, but God has a different way of disposing of his anger im sure....whatever that way is i'll leave it to Him and leave u with a 10 for this poem!!

    Very thoughtful, insperational and thought provoking.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
