Analysis of The rains



The rains
The clouds gather
They grow darker
The rains have finally come
The happy smile on the farmers face
For they will water the fields
And the crops will sprout
The herds men are happy
The grass in the fields will grow again
The cows are happy they don't have to walk long distance
But the herds men are happier there will be more milk
The kids are happy
They have waited too long for this time to come
The pools that were dry will once again thrive
The kids will swim
The don't have to fetch water from long distance
They will have time to play
The rains have come at last
The village chief thanks the rain god
There will be life once again
Country boy
