Childlike Feeling
It was a childlike feeling that came over me
As I danced barefoot in the hard pouring rain
Soaked to the bone I flit about
On a beautiful Sunday
And that it was!
By Jove it twas a lovely day
My nephew’s third birthday
Church was super special on this day
And everyone there was so happy
Then to come home and later getting rained on while mowing the lawn
A feeling of Baptism hit me all over again
Because, you see, I did not take the dip
I was sprinkled on after answering “yes” to the questions my preacher asked me
What a feeling it is to be drenched in a rain from the Heaven’s
Only God can bless us with something so sweet
I was looking for rainbows on that day
But what I had sought was ne’er to be found
It is alright though because my heart got a chance to sing
And I in myself felt like a child again
Though I do not recall pursing such a delight as this when I was younger
But as an adult perhaps it is better
Simply because I am born of more understanding and heart now
More than ever
Thank you, Jesus, for the blessing of rain
I might have still had a high lawn in spots
But I was feeling blessed more so
And that made it worth it ♥
