Enthusiastic Monday: Angels and Raindrops

The January 7, 2013 prompt for "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS"  is Persuade me why you appreciate rainy days.

Rain Angels

One by one angels descend
each holding raindrop
in his or her hand.

Each angel
carries a blessing
for saint and for sinner,
for believer and infidel.

Each one
transports a message
of love and forgiveness
to all creatures
upon the Earth.

Raindrops on My Head

One by one
angels descend
depositing
raindrops on my head.

The voice of the thunder
proclaims God's love
for all of humanity,
while the lightning reveals
a world transformed
by the blessings
love bestows.

As I stand in the rain
listening
angels whisper in my ears
intoning the joy
of a cleansing shower
on both my body
and soul.
