Value of a Rain Drop

Ask a farmer on a dry summer day, the value of a rain drop, ask the bird who has went some time with no water, the value of a rain drop. Ask some poor dog who has been in the sun for hours, the value of a rain drop, ask a condememed man who is about to die, the value of a rain drop. Ask the river bed so dry, the value of a rain drop, last of all, ask the person in hell, the value of a rain drop. wrote 8-6-07

Good job on this poem. It's true that when you need something bad enough that they'd gladly take it even in the smallest amounts. Once again, great write, Leah.
