Waiting for the rain......
Lake Joondalup tends to dry up by the height of summer….. then fills up again when the winter rains come…..
A big thank you to Adgray for this inspired wonderful poem…..
Where has it gone the waters of yore
How deep was my volume how sweet all the more
And now there is dryness and silence on shore
As I wait for the rains to come
Who has my waters that fill me anew
I long for the downfalls but feel only a few
The life waiting with me leave as winds blew
As I wait for the rains to come
And then it will happen the seeping the surge
The banks will be whetted and life is now urged
Watch all the bird-life in my shallows will splurge
Now that the rains have come
