Pitter-Pats

Gentle pitter-pats come tapping
'gainst window outside are rapping
frothy breath misting warm glass
more restless beat the pitter-pats.

Strong winds eastward now come blowing
from lamplight dull lume is glowing
moist leaves swirl in conjoined dance
embracing 'gainst frail creaking glass.

Fearful feet from storm run dashing
flee t'ward structures now down crashing
unaware of beacon Light
upon far hill is shining bright.

Thankfully rest people kneeling
on this hill are joyful feeling
beacon Light now warms each soul
who sought its safety from gales cold.

Gentle pitter-pats cease tapping
'gainst window outside once rapping
frothy breath withdraws from glass
thank You Dear Lord! for storms that pass.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Isaiah 4:6 ~ And there shall be a tabernacle for a shadow in the day time from the heat, and for a place of refuge, and for a covert from storm and from rain.

Isaiah 25:4 ~ For thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.

About the Poet
I feel truly blessed to have been a wife, mother, grandmother and servant of God through salvation in Jesus Christ my Lord. I pray that my offering to Him through this seemingly innocuous form of communication called poetry will always lift His Name above all other names. May God bless each of us in this pursuit.
