Rain can appear in many different guises Can be welcome, unwanted and full of surprises Gentle April showers on a fresh Spring morn Thunderous big drops on a Summers dawn Blown in the wind on a fierce Autumn gale A freezing cold Winter when it turns into hail Creates a stunning rainbow when its playing in the the sun Or cause a mighty flood when the drops join into one It can take lives or save them depending on its mood Wash away a village or help them grow their food Never underestimate the powers of the rain It's a force that can't be reckoned with and cannot be restrained
