The Rain Will Wash Me Clean Poem by jen capaldi
The Rain Will Wash Me Clean
I step outside
Under a confused sky
A strom seems to be abrew
And the elements whisper to me
A maelstrom's promise of change
Under it's violent, watchful eye
Ferocity needed to undo what's been done
Endless blue skies to my left
Ever darkening skies to my right
And the rain is directly overhead
With affermations it will wash me clean
To the left is my salvation and peace
To the right is my justice and vengence
I turn my eyes skyward
To beg for it's deliverence of my misfortune
For the transgressions I've been bestowed
Unfairly given and entirely undeserved
The rain pours down upon me
Mixing with tears of desperation
The temepst comes upon me
Holding me safe in the midst of it's fury
The lightening eradicates my undeserved trespasses
The thunder voices my righteous vindication
It allows the rain to cleanse me
Of the albatross' I carry
My tears are still assimilated with the rain
I feel my encumberance being lifted from my soul
As the rain and my tears wash me clean
My heart and soul begin to feel elightened
As the maelstrom's intensity gradually fades away
I wordlessly thank my beloved elements
My gratitude is acknowledged with a beatiful rainbow
Delicate and small it surrounds me
Filling my minds eye with sweet serenity
Leaving me with it's everlasting promise
That when it is most ardently needed
The rain will wash me clean

I like the idea of the elements being furious at the injustice inflicted upon an innocent soul and soon this will turn into some sacred wrath and thunder to be culminated by the pouring of aerial rain that will wash away this ordeal of injustice. The rain pours down upon me Mixing with tears of desperation The temepst comes upon me Holding me safe in the midst of it's fury The lightening eradicates my undeserved trespasses The thunder voices my righteous vindication It allows the rain to cleanse me Of the albatross' I carry My tears are still assimilated with the rain I feel my encumberance being lifted from my soul As the rain and my tears wash me clean Then some calm will reign: My heart and soul begin to feel elightened As the maelstrom's intensity gradually fades away I wordlessly thank my beloved elements My gratitude is acknowledged with a beatiful 'rainbow' Delicate and small it surrounds me Filling my minds eye with sweet serenity Leaving me with it's everlasting promise That when it is most ardently needed The rain will wash me will wash this ordeal. Excellent work with a high mark and my wishes for a lasting peace of mind.
