Rain
Rain, Rain, and rain some more…
What I wouldn’t give for a little sunshine.
I would give anything to bask again in the light so sublime.
Looking into my crystal ball… you can guess just what I see.
It’s only an empty crystal ball… empty as the day to me.
We keep sloshing through this water…each day after day.
But some day soon the sun will shine…
And heaven will open its door… I pray.
Then a little bit of radiance… will maybe stream our way.
The rain won’t last forever, though for 40 days it did once come.
The climate is changing everywhere…
Maybe a rain forest our land will soon become.
But we are so resilient… that we’ll adapt in the end.
Until that time please come back…
Sunshine my beloved friend.
