Water evaporates up into the sky
forming condensation way up high
To fall to land it precipitates,
it drenches, soaks and penetrates.
Some rain falls as April showers,
this is gentle and best for the flowers.
Some rain falls as heavy downpours
these are annoying and make life pause.
Rain lashes down on the window pane,
but our displeasure is the gardens gain.
Once the sun has returned to the sky,
everything looks refreshed and dry.

The Rain
Evaportation from river and seas
Transpiration from plants and trees
Watervapour is formed this way,
It rises and cools, or so they say,
Condensation then takes place,
Forming clouds ata steady pace.
The nimbus is the one with rain,
It stores it, til it falls again
Growing larger as water becomes more,
Gravity forcing a massive downpour,
Pitter patter s raindrops fall
Shaped like teardrops, not a ball
As slivers shattering from broken glass
And drops of dew on blades of grass
Beautifull to look at, soothing to the ear,
I like to watch, I like to hear,
Being caught out and getting wet
That's not enjoyment and yet ...
It is refreshing and feels so pure
We need the rain of that I'm sure.
