Rain Dance-

My tribute to rain. Imagine a Native American drum beat in the background when reading.

Chained me, sold me,
These four walls so cramp and hold me
Gray above me
Sends his sons to say they love me
Don't they fear me?
Sounds of little droplets cheer me
Soothe me, call me,
Random rhythm does enthrall me

Pouring, pounding,
Nature's drum roll keeps on sounding
Beating, calling,
My resistance keeps on falling
Roaring lightning
Ignorance says it is fright'ning
Feeling, needing,
In me happiness is seeding

Heaven's creatures
Gray sky covers up their features
Cannot replace
Happiness when they hit my face
Pitter, patter,
Day or night, it doesn't matter
Hear my laughter
Echo 'til the morning after

Will not lose you
Know that I will not abuse you
I implore you
Please don't leave me, I adore you
Cannot hate you
Know that I appreciate you
Weep about you
Will not be complete without you

Sky's gift ended
All the droplets have descended
Gray is finished
Happiness too soon diminished
Somewhere, someday
Happiness will come the same way
Time to say 'bye
To the water in the sky.
