There will be times when days turn gray
The storm rages on, thrusting gusts of wind your way
Dark, turbulent clouds block out any sun ray
No, this is not what you view as an ideal day
While your clothes may turn soggy
And your view may turn foggy
And ends up leaving you feeling quite groggy
You might enjoy it, but you’re not a little froggy
Don’t despair; don’t lose hope
It won’t do you any good to sit around and mope
You can do so much more than cope
You might just need to view it with a different kind of scope
Yes, the rain might feel dreary some of the time
But it cleanses and washes away all the grime
It allows plants to grow and then reach their prime
Water’s role in life is truly sublime
Each occurrence is a blessing, even if you can’t see it yet
Rainy days should be seen as more than just a threat
It happens regardless, so there’s no need to get upset
After all, sometimes it’s important to get a little wet
Don’t get so fixated on those gray clouds up in the sky
Don’t forget how precious water is—it’s a blessing, a supply
The sun will definitely return; you don’t have to ask why
Finding the meaning in each experience is a lesson we should apply
