Wednesday Poem

Untitled

Lord,
……… when you send the rain,
……… think about it, please,
……… a little?
Do
……… not get carried away
……… by the sound of falling water,
……… the marvelous light
……… on the falling water.
I
……… am beneath that water.
……… It falls with great force
……… and the light
Blinds
……… me to the light.

by James Baldwin – 1924-1987
