Heavy Rain - Poem by Angela Wybrow

Fields everywhere, now are completely sodden.
No more can their surfaces be safely trodden.
The grass in the fields was all turning brown,
But now, I fear that the fields could drown.

This year, it looked like we were facing a drought,
But now, I can't believe how much rain is about.
It rains all day long, without even a pause.
Only by the plants, is all this rain is adored.

On the roads, there are massive puddles.
In the fields, under trees, the cattle huddle.
I know we all said we wanted the rain,
But now, it's becoming a bit of a pain.

There are grey skies constantly overhead,
And I'm not that tempted to leave my bed.
The water in the fields will take ages to go,
And, now many of the vegetables won't grow.

In this weather, you're constantly soaking wet,
And, by many a gloomy face, are you often met.
At any moment, I fear there'll be a thunder storm.
This weather makes me feel very far from warm.

Every day, there is more heavy downfalls forecast,
How much longer can this dreadful weather last?
Even the weather forecaster gives a sympathetic look.
This weather is really pretty bad, even by his book.

In the towns, the High Streets are somewhat deserted.
On some roads, floods cause the traffic to be diverted.
Leaves and general rubbish clutter up the drains,
So that, on the road surfaces, the water will remain.

It's summertime, and the weather is supposed to be hot,
But we've had all this rain lately, so obviously it's not.
People everywhere are cancelling their summer barbeques;
Informing all their guests of the rather disappointing news.

There was a time when summer was hot and winter was cold,
But, into one, the seasons now seemed to have been rolled.
The whole nation over, organisers are cancelling events,
While fed up campers are speedily packing up their tents.

What the weather would be like, you once were able to guess,
But it's all turned topsy-turvy and is now a real bloomin' mess.
In an ideal world, during the day, the sun could shine nice and bright,
Then the rain could fall for hours on end, as long as it was only at night.

A healthy mixture of sun and rain is what we really need;
Both of which are needed to germinate newly sown seeds.
I really do wish that this constant rain would just go away;
Allowing us to carry out activities, we'd planned for the day.

Periyamma 🤗 Chellam 🤗 Bindup 🤗

@ Periyamma

The heavy rain poem -what a find, Periyamma. 👏

In Malaysia too, we face these bleak rainy days at the end of the year and this poem reflects very well my feelings during those wet spells. 😃

@ Chellam

Hope the flood situation in SL improves quickly. Be safe, Chellam.🤗

Hope Savi and her family are fine,too.😊

@ Lashy

Lashy Sahiba, the piece about the destruction caused by mining reminds me of the situation at one of our scenic hill stations, Cameron Highlands. Illegal land clearing for agricultural purposes is cited to be one of the reasons for the flash floods and murky rivers there.
