Rainfall
Like a rain dance gone wrong
Been raining so long
The sky is forever crying
But I see the sun keeps on trying
Now and then it will appear
Then comes another tear
The rain forest around me
Watering every tree
Saturating everything I see
Waiting for the sun to show
Hopefully to see a rainbow
Mountain tops covered in fog
Sitting here on this wet log
Enjoying the view
Every day something new
Up so high
Sitting among the clouds in the sky
The rain becomes a wall
It seems it should not have far to fall
To touch the ground
It is like a clapping sound
Soaked to the bone
I sit here alone
This is peace being grown
Again comes the sun
For a moment it won
Ñever to give up trying
Because although the sky is crying
It will survive the tears
Learned over the years
Does not always need to shine
To feel fine
It is always bright
Even when you can't see its light
That's right
