Rain Rain Go Away

Missing image

Should I build an ark with all this rain
Take fits to keep from going insane
Head to the tropics on a silver plane
Rainy days make my patience strain

God is washing the Earth this I know
And I am glad this rain is not snow
After weeks of rain, please make it go
Bring back His heavenly rainbow

Fish pond is rising and so full of mud
Creek is overflowing about to flood
Grandpa says we seen much worse
We could be in a drought's dry curse

Weather can be too dry or wet to sow
Either way son the crops will not grow
The Lord is in control that I do know
And we have our fishing boat to row

Keep on praying and it just might stop
The sun will shine and save our crop
If the stream runs over river bank top
I'll grab a bucket you grab the mop

    Love Rain

    As a confirmed lover of rain
    Makes me sad to see you complain
    The glistening flowers with drops hanging
    The sound of thunder, giants feet a'banging
    Tis only in jest a little I mock
    And never your gift I seek to knock

    Right on!

    Are you in the Amish country? They are some of the best growers in the World. This is a cute poem. "Raining in my Heart", by Buddy Holly is one of my favorite songs. Best wishes. How is your book of poetry coming along? Have you found a publisher yet?

      Good morning Wesley.

      A nice surprise that brings a smile when you stop by. I live about a half hour away from the Amish country. Beautiful countryside to take a ride through. I love that Buddy Holly song too, I have it on my author's page. Great minds must think alike.
      Well you take care. Hugs and Smiles my friend.

      Peace and Grace, Sandy

    The heat here was only broke by rain then the heat. Maybe we and thee can have a dry spell with out toooooo much hear or rain say till this time next year. Then just a few nice sunny days for a few more years. Good morning My dear Sweet friend who feels a bit washed out. Dry those skies and let some sunshine in for a while. My only wish is not be to hot and melt you to a frazzle...mac

    Great pen, lots of rhyme to help the flow. Is there to much rain or little? Our plight is figuring out what is just right. This makes me smile to see God knows we appreciate his control. Thanks for the fun read
