After days of hot sun, down came the rain
It watered the garden, and flowed down the drain
In less than five hours the months quote met,
The news had reported, a record was set.
The drink was welcomed by parched earth,
Ending the dry spell experienced by Perth
But soon people complained about getting wet,
They wanted the sun, how would they soon forget
Were never satisfied, with what we get,
It’s too hot or too cold too dry or too wet.
We want 24 degrees, with sky that is blue,
And rain for an hour in the morning at two.
We should be grateful, for the sun and the rain
Make the most of it all and do not complain.
When things do happen, which we can’t control,
Leave it in his hands, it is part of his goal.
