When storm clouds gather.
Take shelter from the harm.
Under the tree boughs
Stay calm.
It's only short lived.
This turbulent time.
Sent as a reminder.
Life's no perfect rhyme.
Dance in the rain.
Throw caution to the wind.
Cast out all doubt.
Free yourself from sin.
As the thunder clouds clap.
Take heed of their warning.
Sort yourself out.
From the turmoil that's calling.
Your flaws are highlighted.
As the moon casts a glow.
Shake them off.
Let them all go.
At the peak of the storm.
All hope seems lost.
Keep travelling through.
At all cost.
When the gentle breeze returns.
And all's right with the world.
Your new path will be set.
Before you unfurled.
Avoid the puddles.
Keep on the path.
Where happiness and peace.
Awaits you at last.
