Summer rain

SUMMER RAIN

Big blobs of summer rain

Racing down my window pain

Drenching flowers in their beds

A happy crowd nodding heads

Soaking through and quenching roots

Awakening dormant seedpod shoots

Tapping on earths crusted floor

Inviting earth worms to explore

Splashing children in their boots

Soaking gentlemen in their suits

Polishing foliage like a duster

Wetted leaves renew a-lustre

Bombing beetles in armoured suits

Well-armed soldiers, efficient troops

Creating rainbows in earths dome

A dazzling setting for our home

Globules of moisture heaven sent

A stunning landscape to invent
