Rain

He says this stupid rain As he runs to the car But later he was happy For a cool drink of water The rains a gift of nature The most important part of our life The most precious of all Without it nothing can survive And yes I am guilty also Of saying this dumb rain When we have to go outside And it just keep falling We so take it for granted Cause we have it in abundance While in some poor counties They pray for it to fall just once Some evil governments Use it to suppress the people Then they sit in the United Nations and the world pretends they don’t know In refuge camps parents are helpless as children die for a drink of water While in some other countries We use it to wash our car The beautiful falling rain Or should I say the stupid rain Is the most precious gift of god? It belongs to every living thing It had one time in Trinidad And I can remember it still The sun was out down the street And rain was falling up the hill I remember seeing a Hindi movie Where they were dancing in the rain And every time I see the rain That beautiful image comes to my brain Some many have fall in love Under the falling rain While many have depend on it To wash away their pain We have to be thankful For what we have in our life’s For what we take for granted Some fight for with gun and knifes We have dish washer, car wash We like to take a long shower While some died of thirst Every second of every hour Some times we are selfish And for simple things we complain And for silly reasons Like getting caught in the rain
