River Runs Wet And Dry

It rained for three days Constant outpouring awakens The dry river to life again A little farther besides our home I hear the rumbling sound Of water slowly snaking though Descending, bulldozing its might Pushing those like foam and debris Downward plaining going farther I can't wait for my outburst feeling Whether I be sad, fear or happy Sad cause by the inundation Of what if it will go to flooding And cause damage to land and properties Fear of natural disaster to happen Happy for our root crops ration with water The rain did not stop its fury I was tamed for three days in seclusion Looking outside observing the effect Slowly the rain die down its anger Slowly also the river begun to calm down Almost a day also the river dries up And it goes back to totally back to sleep That's when my fear and sadness also cease Back to normal, life goes on to live.
