Oh Rain

Oh Rain

The clouds began to grow dark,

Announcing d onset of something liquid;

The thunders gave a loud bark,

Sure there was going to be fluid;

You could feel the cool breeze,

That would make your skin freeze;

There is going to be a downpour,

I pray it not be an outpour;

Farmers would be happy cos of their crops,

I won’t be, cos the fun would drop;

A caller said “Bos come home”,

Carried my bag and headed home;

I whispered a short prayer,

Lord, let it not rain on me;

In response to that prayer was a thunder,

Was that an appropriate reply?;

It did rain! Yes it rained on me,

At this, I was so very sad;

The tricycles would not stop for a wet passenger,

This made me all the more sad;

Finding shelter was the next option,

I saw a group praying in the rain;

The preacher had this caption,

Do not let your faith drain;

With such encouragement I smiled,

And said… thank God for the rain.
