Rain, Rain Comes Again

Rotten tree branches come alive

And birds in the puddles take a dive

I see plants open their branches to great

Nimbly the raindrops they finally meet

Raindrops that were scarce for weeks now

Are straightening the tree who thirstily bow

It’s unusual to see folk dancing in the rain

Now it seems so expected they dance again and again

Clouds take their time and slowly depart

Overhead is like a night need to start

More dark clouds gather and shed their tears

Every life receives them with welcome cheers

Soil drinks the downpour and scarcely lets any go

A spray of droplets come from the trees as breezes blow

Glorious to feel the coolness after all the heat

A refreshing breeze from head to feet

It was a terrible drought as the island missed the rain

Now finally we sing Rain, rain comes again
