I was doing just fine <br />When the winds began to blow. <br />I hoped it wouldn't get rough <br />Then the lightening let me know. <br /> <br />Rough storm coming on <br />Taking cover was my need. <br />Then I wondered to myself <br />Just where would this storm lead. <br /> <br />Such thundering in my heart <br />As the rain poured down. <br />Yet the sun peeped through <br />Its light never hitting the ground. <br /> <br />The clouds swallowed the sun <br />It got darker by the minute. <br />As I tried to console myself <br />Saying the Lord just sent it. <br /> <br />When all of a sudden <br />It was quiet all around. <br />And the sun shone through <br />Glistening when I felt so down. <br /> <br />As I noticed by this storm <br />I had been shelered all the time <br />For just down the road <br />Detruction meant to be mine. <br /> <br />Sheltered by this storm <br />Just in the nick of time. <br />God was cleansing and watering my path <br />Prearing His light in me to shine.<br /><br />Cecelia Weir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sheltered-storm/
