The Relief of Rain

As I sit with a book 

I can’t help but look 

Out the window at the pounding rain 

As relief runs through each and every vein

So now I sit and stare 

And wonder where oh where 

The rain is doing the most healing 

And now it gives me a warm feeling 

To know the rain will end the drought

Makes me want to thank and reach out 

To all the farmers out there 

Who will see the rain and shed a tear 

As the rain will end there struggle 

They can lay down there shovel 

And finally have a break

Maybe even a small piece of cake 

So I walk outside 

With a mighty big stride 

And under my umbrella I stand  

As I am grateful the rain will reach my land

For finally we have some rain 

Some rain to end this pain

Now I sit and stare 

For rain like this has become rare
