The Earth Poem by Sebastian Soberania

the earth has been on a very
long dry spell

the grasses wilted and the
trees shed off all its leaves

the buffaloes had long taken
their new places far away from here

and then one morning when they all
least expect it

for they are still expecting more
sunny days and scorching noons

the clouds come united as one
black force in the blue sky

heavy soon the clouds break into rain
the villagers give themselves for some

tears of joy
the rain pours and the children play

bathing and running and cheering
such is the summer i had in the village of the poorest
