Showers Of Blessing

The summer sun with its heat
waves,
Has been here for far too long;
It is time for the rains to come,
And for the birds to break into
song.
All dried and dusty is the earth,
Scorched by the heat of the sun;
But hurrah! The rain clouds are
rolling in,
The monsoon months have begun.
Pain and storms are in store for us,
And water everywhere will be;
Running in streams and little
rivulets,
All the way down to the big sea.
The dusty earth will rejoice indeed,
And be glad for the downpour of
rain;
It will clean all the dust and grime,
And help the trees and flowers
sustain.
Happiness, relief and joy indeed,
The rain showers shall bring to all;
People are waiting with bated
breath,
For these showers of blessing to
fall.
The wait, though long and
seemingly endless,
Will surely be over any day;
I hope all preparations for the
monsoon are made,
Because it may even start raining
today!
