Flood Waters

As the rain falls day after day The levies start to break away The roads are flooded everywhere No way to get from here to there The skies open and cry again As the rising waters box us in Sometimes the pain of old man winter Hurts just like a festering splinter But that’s ok we have seen it all before As once again the skies start to pour Just when you think its over you should know The true flood comes with the melting snow
