I saw you posted a few hours ago that it was raining outside your window

It's raining here now - the first time in awhile.
It must be the same storm. How odd that I never think of how close we are
On this tiny little planet
Under this tiny little sun
Feeling the rain from the same storm.

It's funny, isn't it?
The same angels that bowled over your head are still playing
The rain that's falling has been around since earths creation
I hear it pouring now. Loud, but silent.

My mother likes to stand outside and watch the Lightning strike
Maybe she watched the same storm we did
Maybe she's feeling the rain her ancestors felt.
Maybe she's at peace.
