Stormy Night
O stormy night of thunder and lighting
I welcome you like a twin who knows only me.
I sit next to the fire warming my hands,
all bent over glad you can see.
O twin of mine feeling warm now back from the rain
rain of many drops of hurt and distraction.
For no one knows how hard the cold rain hurts.
It does this scared heart good cheer to be warm.
Warmed again by a fire deep into me,
I go now.., prepared into the rain you see.
