Dear Mother Rain
In your presence
Old rain
Our milk teeth we shed.
Under your guidance
Sweet rain
We recited our alphabet.
Under your cover
Tender rain
We wetted our pants.
To your music
Amiable rain
We danced in the nude.
Under your watch
Fair rain
We played our soccer.
With your touch
Inspiring rain
We were reborn with great dreams.
Dear Mother Rain,
Why not keep us
In your
bosom till the end of time?
