Water fell from the sky last night

Water fell from the sky last night;
People rejoiced, danced in the streets!
While the Earth drank up every glistening drop.

I merely stood awestruck, watching,
A heart swelled with wonder at this simple, amazing birth.

Tonight the yardforest sings a grand insect song,

A world premier to end the shushing of arid, whispering trees.

NB: my section of the country is in the midst of it's worst drought in over 118 years. Please pray for rain.

JSYK,

I think that the G-clef with the g on the first line of the staff is PERFECT for my voice! It puts middle C at two ledger lines below the staff with A5 at the top line of the staff.

In short , it shorthands my whole rep...

Beautiful!
I stood on the porch and laughed aloud with my arms out and my head thrown back.
