What is Rain?

What is rain but
Angels that fall from the sky?
Sacrificing themselves
To bring the world back to Life

Be an angel. Be the rain.
Be a human of service
The reason for scented flowers
In the soul of anothers’ life

Send them your prayers
Show them your love
It matters not if
It’s a simple smile or
A single hug

Don’t be afraid
Rain returns to its source
When you give to others
You end up
Helping yourself

Dedicated to Belinda at http://busymindthinking.com/ for the idea and for being a source of scented flowers in many people’s lives.

When my hair turns grey and
I reach the sunset of age
I wonder what regrets
Would flood my heart

I would not care
If I left this world
Without fame or riches
A legacy, leaving my name
On towers built up high

I would regret
Not protecting the orphan child
Who cried late at night
All alone
Wondering how he’d survive

I would regret
Not helping the homeless man
Hungry in the biting cold
Hoping for shelter
Just this night

I would regret
Not spreading one more smile
Giving one more hug
And bringing joy
To those in need of hope

So before I die
I’ll do my best
To touch a heart
And change this world
One person at a time
