I know Why It Rains

I know why it rains

The clouds are crying

And bringing forth their grief

The heavens are heavy and must load off

I don’t know why the leaves change colors in the fall

Or why they fall in the winter

Leaving the trees barren and cold

Or decorating then with colors

But I know why the sun rises and sets

It comes up and shines its light

Upon the ground and on my face

Setting the earth in a shadow when it is gone
