Raindrops splatter
Hissing, kissing dusty ground
Dark clouds smother
Blue skies cover
Grim and gloomy all around
One man sprinting
Broad smile hinting
Joy within, rain won't wipe out
Smiling brightly
Dancing sprightly
As the rain falls all about
Running quickly
Sleek and slickly
Passing Ahab on the way
Loudly shouting
Victory flouting
"Glory, what a wondrous day!"
Ahab snarling
Knuckles gnarling
Flicks his whip at horses swift
Muscles straining
Hearts complaining
Closing not the widening rift
Brown mud churning
Friction spurning
Chariot wheels slip and slide
Rain that's gushing
Tumbling, rushing
Ahab tossed around inside
Elijah skipping
Well outstripping
Proclaims aloud in joyful song
"See God's power
This very hour.
To him alone all things belong."
Years of drought
Sin brought about
Those desert days have ended
God's holy fire
Ignites desire
His power, now comprehended.
Water splashing
Downward lashing
Cleansing, making all things new
Rain clouds spilling
Rivers filling
Rays of sunlight breaking through
God is reigning
All sustaining
No one else with him compare
On His throne
He rules alone
Awesome glory, He'll not share
