The distant rumble of thunder is heard as the tall trees begin to sway in the wind. Darkness approaches in the parade of nature's path. Rain begins to fall, covering the earth with a coat of moisture. As the light fades, animals find shelter and warmth from a Winter storm that will last for days. |

Written in response to a request by her
Father. It rained the night that Charlie
composed this song, using the musical notes
in Johnna's full name. A fire provided warmth
to Johnna and her father as they sat and
listened to Charlie play the song for the
first time. As the song progressed, they
held each other and cried. It will touch you
too! Enjoy! :) |
