Adeleke Adeite Poet Enclosed Rhyme

Blame It On the Rain

For each time tough 
teardrops fall from your 
eyes
for each night your still 
stream screams out loud,
for each dusk that your 
lovely light cannot be proud
blame it on the rain that 
storm your scene, oh skies.

For each time the green 
grasses grow like wild fire,
for each season the streets 
go to sleep too early,
for each night you cannot 
see through the window 
clearly,
blame it on the rain, that 
made sweet sights to retire.

For each time, the sunlight 
could not smile at noon,
for each time the stars 
cannot sparkle at twilight,
for each time the sweet 
singing sparrows take 
flight,
blame it on the rain... when 
at dusk you find no moon.

When cold carresses your 
skin as you lay in you bed,
when the warmth of the 
wind has been stolen,
when the soothing skies is 
soiled and swollen,
blame it on the rain that 
you had to hide your head.
