The current prognosis is dim
Rain, more rain and then rain
Roof leaking
Raging river in the eavestrough
Basement flooded
Walkway a flood plain
Rain, more rain and then rain.

Build an ark, fly a plane
Off to some high, dry plain
Rain, more rain and then rain.

The mood shifts
Clouds part
Sun beams rays of warmth
Down upon drying pools
Of scattered rain
No more rain, no more rain
Blessed be the sun’s rays
Drying up the clouds rain.
