Rain

Sparkling droplets of liquid life

 

Drop from the sky to fields of green 

 

The grasses reach like upstretched hands

 

To bring the beauty back to the land

 

All the colors of brown and grey

 

Know the rain is here they cannot stay

 

They will stand aside for nature\'s path

 

Or stand to reckon nature\'s wrath

 

As blue and green suffuse the earth 

 

And bring about nature\'s rebirth 

 

The grass will sing the trees will smile 

 

Because life is better for awhile 

 

And here I sit a happy man

 

Just watching nature work nature\'s plan
