There is a story
and you don't have to be
a hopeless romantic
to believe it's true
that on a cloudy day
when the sky and spirit
of the world was a dark
and stormy blue
rain fell in torrents
and great angry gusts of wind blew
and everyone in the world knew
that all the wishes for sunshine
would never come true
and then quite suddenly
a rainbow broke through
and the rain turned into roses
falling gently from the sky
covering mountains, and deserts,
cities and oceans, too
and so many places where roses never grew
filling umbrellas with flowers
and peoples hearts with hope
there was so much beauty
and fragrance sublime
that no one ever asked why
raindrops turned to roses
and fell from the sky
for somehow the world knew
this miracle from above
was a message of love.
