WHEN THE RAIN, RAIN HER TEARS.

Ajudua Cyprian Ifechukwude 1998 (Ibusa)

Free verse
When the rain, rain her tears.
It looks like the world was coming to an end.
She dances Sparta Sparta on my roof.
My roof has to endure her.
Knowing that, it was just for a little while.

She dances on any roof.
Making no discreetness.
It was the MAKER that made so.
So that both good and evil shall enjoy her blessings.

Her blessings are like bountiful flowers.
Of roses.
Ah...! Not so sure.
But, I know.
That they scent like sweet flowers.

Oh....! Rain.
I cherish thee.
I LOVE thee.
I bless thee.

Truly, I love thee above all things,
Things of beauty and of nature.
