It Rains

No matter what I do Or how many times I want to see the sun The rain does what it will And comes when it will And of course Leave when it will Somewhere there is a force Greater than myself That makes decisions I have no control over Let us take for instance Yesterday… I wanted to go out And lie in the warmth Of a warm summer’s sun By the elephants, tigers and ravens But it rained And stopping them from eating Each other is a full time job On the other hand… today I sit by my window Like I did yesterday And watch the damn rain Knowing that sooner or later It has to stop It has to… doesn’t it?
