The Thunder Cloud
Kari enjoys writing poetry. There is a certain freedom in poetry because you don't always have to follow the rules.
We are, each one,
A tiny part of humanity
Just as a raindrop
Is a tiny part of the cloud.
Separately we each are tiny,
But, together we are
The thunder cloud.
Together we storm and rage.
We thunder loudly.
Together we send
A deluge on this earth.
We can choose,
War or peace.
We want to be apart,
Storm and rage on our own.
Each raindrop going
Its own way.
But, when we break
Apart, we lose our power.
We become one
Little, tiny raindrop again.
Let us join together
To make a cloud.
A giant thunder cloud
We can send a deluge of
Love over the earth.
A healing rain that brings life,
And ends in a
drizzle of happiness.
Together we can watch
The rainbow of promise,
Hope and love which follows.
