It Will Rain

It will rain today and NEPA will seize the light
The firmament is dark, the cloud is enormous
The singing birds have fled
Everyone to its home

It will rain today, I’m worried
I have neither roof enough for storage
Nor grow fins to swim
My Bedchamber a  harbour
 for the looming flood

It will rain and flood everywhere
Motors will be trapped in the traffic, 
Passengers will trek miles in group
And pedestrians will muddle the streets

It will rain today and farm road slippery
I will be drenched by the spit of the over drunk bushes,
Work in cassava plantation boring,
And father wont take no for answer

It will rain today and plants would rejoice
Happy plants will feed and feed mankind
Animals will eat and give us living
For it rains to bless mankind

It will rain; it will rain
The horrifying black sky scares me
A fair blue sky turns suddenly foul!
A calm refreshing breeze turns swiftly wild!

It will rain; look up the scaring skies
I wish you're the obedient Noah
Under the heavy cloud of the great flood
Who heeded the warning of the looming danger.
