RAIN

162 26 39
                                    

Her eye is cold and grey

Her tears like raindrops fall

Her shadows the darkest night

Her anger the storm that cries

See the fury of the sky

See the clouds collide on high

See the sun fade to black

See the turmoil she creates

The clouds so pregnant dark and still

The load it carries must now fall

The thunder rumbles its deafening roar

The lightning pierces the silent pause

People scatter under shelter

Pavements now are soaking wet

Pathways turn to muddy puddles

Petals fall upon the sand

Children cry and hide away

Crashing sounds of thunder linger

Crescent streaks of blinding light

Creating havoc across the sky

Rain like tears fall to earth

Rushing over, round and through

Reaching rivers flowing free

Resting finally in the sea

Rain the planet's quenching thirst

Rain that causes flood's distress

Rain that never ceases to amaze

Rain the life blood of the Earth.
