Today's Weather Forecast

Clouds and fog like tarnished silver
Float weeping, mourning 'pon
The dry ground saturating it
Restoring what was gone

The Pecan Tree limbs sway dancing
With the very gentle
Breeze, and swirl with rain's soothing touch
How long will it flow "til

The clouds or system in place moves
On or they dissipates
I hope others who are needing 
Rain participate

In the joy of a gentle rain
That waters the good earth
Restoring much needed moisture
Then beautiful rainbow birth
