SUMMER SHOWERS
The san said to the roses, “You are very, very, dry. You are looking rather faded too, And I know why. You want a cloud to come And sprinkle you with rain. I’ll send one in a little while, Then I will shine again.” The cloud came sailing over Like a little snowy ship. And it sprinkled silver water With a drip, drip, drip. And when the sun returned The roses wearing diamonds; The cloud had left behind. (Sent by Ivy Holliday.)
