Rain

Rain

Reviving green grasses and flowers too

Life once again reborn anew, 

 In summertime the rains do come

Washing away the burning sun

 

But more than with it does come

People watching everyone,

Soaking all who happen by

As if rinsing off bad vibes.

 

For rain often sadness brings

lost loves lost times and many things

The only hope that can well up

Is of sunshine, not soon enough

 

We hear thunder in the distance boom

Coming closer very soon

Lightning lights the countryside

flashes that will soon subside

 

Then once soaked the raining ceases

we feel inside our joy increases

with hopefulness of sunshine looming

grasses now green and flowers blooming

 

Our spirits now are fully raised

rains now gone, sunshine praised

The sun has the world now covered

Maybe we can finally love each other.
