_Heaven Can Wait_

The monsoon sky speaks to me
 Through its dusky, silky veil I can hear its distant
whispers And I say, heaven can wait

The rumbling roar is near at hand
 The zephyr transforms to a storm Darkness descends
at noon And I say, heaven can wait

The sheets of rain pour forth
 Dancing merrily on tiled roofs The melodies blend
with the percussion And I say, heaven can wait

The downpour slows to a drizzle
 As the puddles reach out to my toes I playfully
dip my ankles And I say, heaven can wait

When the heavens come pouring down
 I seek not refuge, nor shelter I seek not the
comfort of the heavens And I simply cannot wait
