It’s an almighty responsibility to irrigate the land. Sending April showers when torrents are in demand. To control cloud bursts with symphonic precision. It takes all my skill and planning to make a decision. I rain for children to have fun, play and splash about. I send deluges of much needed water to eradicate drought. Glorious precipitation when ceased creates a vivid rainbow. Water to cleanse the cities and for flowers and crops to grow. When I rain in the Summer my glistening falls are well met. If I join the storm and signal its onslaught it’s grumbling I get. I especially like to rain crystal droplets where rivers are flowing. I rain over lakes keeping wildlife growing. I am special, its worth knowing.

This is a wonderfully descriptive personification of rain dearest Wen. I love how rain justifies its existence and necessity. ‘ symphonic precision’’ vivid rainbow’ ‘ glistening falls ‘ and I really love,’ rain crystal droplets’. We all grumble when it rains but your lovely poem is a great reminder of why we should welcome rainfall. I really enjoyed the sights and sound of the rain here and your picture is beautiful too. Fingers crossed for you in the contest.
