a wet November
weekend
it rained day after day
valley fields were green
bottom where it is so flat
grass and bushes seen
at night rain in wind was wild
as monsoon but never showers
grass can not be viewed
neither walls, fields or flowers
new lakes have now arrived
swollen river floods this land
two farmers survey the scene
drowned fields out of hand
these new lakes appear so pretty
where cows will usually stand
mud then silt dry no sign left
grass again back to farmer’s land
