Rain always meant something to me
When i was really small i learned about the water cycle
It comes down, pools around, stirs up again and back around
Rain and lakes and falls and oceans and clouds.
When i was still small i learned about weather
Taller clouds fall in crowds and thunder makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up
When i was a teen came the droughts
The world is ending and i wont make it out
I will feel no more rain and the times it did fell on numb pain
When i grew up i was hopeless listless and grieving
The world ending tirelessly endlessly around me
Until i learned again when i thought i was done
The world isnt ending, she's still turning. She's still raining
Just with hotter fires and crying out
"What am i doing?" I wake and shout "it will matter to that sea star" i remembered
A beach of drying animals and distress, hopeless to save most let alone the rest
But the story goes that a little kid throws
Back to the sea, another day.
To that one sea star it mattered when it mattered most
Just because that little kid decided to say.
So when i grow up, i want to learn about the rain some day.
