"Rain "

                          "Rain "


  The angels cried and the rain fell,
  upon such a wicked earth.
  Their tears begging man to change,
  and for , life's rebirth.

  It rained and rained for 40 days,
  until all life was gone.
  Only those who felt the pain,
  survived to sing God's song.

  The water left and tears dried up,
  and life started over anew.
  But every now and then the sun,
  gave up some more tears too.

  And generations came and went,
  the earth filled with people.
  So when you think the angels cry,
  the rain is for me and you.
