After a night of rain

when dawn pushes aside the clouds

everything drips fresh and clean.

Could there be a more perfect moment?

All creation rejoices in its beauty.

I wish to stay here in this sliver of rightness.

But I can’t.

Time moves on, and I must go with it.

What lingers is a promise of more.

But in keeping with His promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousness. 2 Peter 3:13
