Send the rain, Lord
That I may understand my brother
Who sees it only.

Make me lonely, Lord
That I can sense the inner pain
Of yet another.

Water my efforts with tears Lord
That I can better comprehend
My sister’s years
Lived in sorrow.

But above all give me love, hope, Christ,
To give each one a sunnier tomorrow.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM

I was a college freshman, attending college in northern California, near the Napa Valley. I had come to know that there was so much to know about others lying below the surface, and I wanted to operate from greater empathy and heaven directed sympathy.
