Too Much Sunshine
Too Much Sunshine
At night everyone prays
Wishing for rain to come
The morning often brings hope
Dark black clouds float overhead
Full of water and promises
They fill the skies from edge to edge
The plants wait for the rain to fall
So do the people who need cooler air
But the Sun may have other ideas
Heating the air more and more
The clouds disappear one by one
Until the sky is, once again, nothing but blue
And again, the Sun has won
The drought continues
And everyone has but one thought
“Can there be too much sunshine”
