Eventually it has to rain

Sky has to go dark and cloudy

Then a moment of windy silence

Leading to a never ending downpour

No matter how hot the summer was

Melting our green earth to brown

No matter how the clear the sky was

Like the vast wave less ocean above us

Even if its the spring time coming ahead

Or the dark winter days coming up

Sky has to go dull and grey

Waiting for the word to spread

Then a moment of anticipatory hush

Leading to an awaited cloudburst

For the dust to settle into its place

After flying high and wide from its blood

It has to come back with the deluge

For a new beginning and rising

Be it spring time ahead or the dark winter

It has to rain..Those drops should fall...
