Sing In the Rain

Dear Rain 
The natural studio I have often visited 
In the late June July August visit 
A good singer I am still not yet 
But I am toned on whenever you visit 
Wet my voice again tonight 
Come gently again this eventide 

Dear rain 
Not the thunder storm like rain 
The one that leaves me brainstorming 
About the possible earth ending 
With lightening so terrifying 
And flooding that wrecks my aboding 
Rendering me naked before my folks 
Making me feel like I am in dirge 

Dear rain 
The teacher that is not seen 
Voice trainer in disguise 
Every drops and sounds you made 
Produces tones unfathomably great 
Singing along with every hits on the roof 
I am mused with the way you play your tones 
Come gently again this eventide 

Dear rain 
Every lyrics are well orchestrated 
Humming and shouting alike 
No listeners across the walls 
To the temple of my heart I sing 
Gently in this natural studio 
I am singing again tonight 
With every drops of the rain 
My beats are produced again
