We Need the Rain
We need the rain
W-ish we could conjure up the rain
E-scalating drought feeling the pain
N-o cold front no cloud in the sky
E-arnest thoughts months go by
E-ventful times our spirits down
D-ecimated smile perpetual frown
T-rust in leadership seems fruitless
H-ardened hearts promises worthless
E-ntreat a willing and higher power
R-evisit the now derelict prayer tower
A-cknowledge your limits much to gain
I-nternal strife so all efforts in vain
N-ation needs relief people need rain
