the rain
Folder:
The Rest cleansing the ground
taking and making new life
washing cares away
but the rain will not come
where is the rain?
it should be here by now
you can smell it in the air
but the rain has not come
the dry earth cries out
wanting respite
needing the rain
but the rain will not come
the creatures suffer
lying in the heat
waiting for the rain
but the rain has not come
the wind blows
driving the clouds before it
darkening the sky
but the rain will not come
the clouds gather
blocking the horizon
calling down thunder
but the rain has not come
lightning strikes
creating chaos
the animals run
but the rain will not come
the tree is gone
the sun returns
the clouds recede
but the rain never came
