Puddles and harvest

The rain falls down, A gentle call, Water seeks lanes and yards, Since the rills,and drains, And local ponds vanished. On the roads, Passing cars splash water, Dirty on paddlers' clothes, As they leap high To avoid the mess. They jump again and again Through the potholes, Dodging the distress. If rain lingers long Water flows, a streaming throng, Covering the roads. Let's bear this all, For in nature's plan, Without rain's grace Rice production would fail . Cherish each drop, For in every storm and puddle Lies promise of harvest.

- Rain gives hope to many, Akham - Some need it more than others ... we have rain all year round ... maybe a couple of weeks in the summer we are without ... not fairly distributed - hugs

Interesting information, as you tell it. It reminds me of yin yan. A destructive force has an opposite force that does good. Rice has kept a lot of people alive. I really like your stories. The verses have a favorable meter.
