WAITING FOR THE RAIN
And The Thunder Rolls
‘Tis rainy season again.
It happens this time each year.
We watch as the dark clouds approach.
When will rain appear?
*
We hear the thunder.
Lightning lights up the sky.
The wind blows the dark clouds away,
And we’re left asky why.
*
The grass is turning brown.
I guess it could be worse.
Do I hear thunder rolling in? I utter darn
As the dark clouds now disperse.
*
The wind is still blowing.
But there’s no cloud in sight.
I can’t help but wonder, what if
We might get rain tonight!
