storm

Indeed, when will this storm end?
On the weekend?
I doubt it, for no storm affecting so many passes so soon.
At the end of semester?
Surely not, for stress can only add to it.
In StuVac?
No, for the storm's clouds will fill our minds in between every studied fact and the next.
After exams?
The relief will only give way to what has been suppressed, and the rain shall strengthen anew.
At Club Veg?
It never rains, but it pours.
Overseas?
You always take the weather with you.
Next year?
The dry wind of February, the beautiful colours of early autumn, and the cold and rainy winter will all come around again.

I may say that I like the rain, but I don't. Oh God, please let my umbrella hold out until the storm has passed.

  1. no, faith is my umbrella... see Ephesians 6. faith in God, yes, but faith can fail when the gusts are strong enough.

  2. What's so bad about a storm anyway?

    Sure you get wet and its a bit cold, but they are a glorious demonstration of how desperately we need water to simply fall from the sky, and the huge amounts of power stored in clouds which we can neither predict nor control.

    Things are never quite what they seem.
