RAIN RAIN GO AWAY COME BACK ANOTHER DAY, RAIN RAIN GO AWAY COME BACK ANOTHER DAY, RAIN RAIN GO AWAY COME BACK ANOTHER DAYI know that we need the rain, i know that for us to have water in our taps we need the rain, i know the farmers need the rain for their crops to grow, i know that for us to have bread, meat eggs, lovely fruit and vegetables to eat we need the rain ..............but for all the rain to fall over one place, is, just hard to understand ................. and i wouldn't even try, because i know that God is in control, and everything is for a purpose and i would not wish, or pray it away, i know there is a reason for us having so much .rain ........... but it would be nice if possible ........ that the rain went somewhere else for a few days .................there are places in the country that are on water restrictions, i have just come back from the Eastern Cape and they are desperate for rain, everything there is dry, and brown, the dams have dried up and they are bringing in water for the animals, but here, here, the washing is beginning to pour out of the bathroom every time you open the door, the washing basket was flashing red days ago, washing overload ....... washing overload ......... some clothes are on there 4th wash they are definitely the cleanest whites and the brightest colours anywhere ............. and the there is the garden, we no longer have gardens we have jungles, you can no longer go for a walk around your garden because the grass in now up to your knees and who knows in this jungle what wild animals are lurking there ............... what bugs have mutated into man eaters, the mosquito's now no longer have to sneak in for attacks in the middle of the night, they just fly in and carry you away they are so big ................. and they buzz around in flocks with noice levels so high it is impossible to sleep ......................
There are puddles everywhere, we have had a minor "dam" in our garden for over a month, right in the middle of the garden, the dog uses it as his paw washing area, just to make sure that his paws are really "clean" before he charges into the house down the passage on the carpets, into the kitchen on the beige tiles, if he was a horse i am sure that he would roll in it, he just loves water, the cars use the mass of water to "clean" there tyres on, so the grass is full of ugly brown tyre marks which serve as a remined of the mud every where two ugly lines reminding us that we really do need to pave the driveway " one day" and the mosquito's ............... yes the mosquito's use it as there breeding ground for there new recruits .............
I am just waiting in anticipation for the ducks to arrive................
We really need some sun, it is funny how the constant rain just has a negative impact on your frame of mind, it also make you realise how much we take the sun for granted, we just know that it is going to be there every morning, to keep us warm, and i am not talking "heat" wise, i am talking keep us warm in our hearts, because it is so much easier to get through a bad day when the sun is shining down on you .........
And those sunsets ................................ oh how i miss those sunsets .........come back sun all is forgiven we miss you ........... we need you ............... we love you ....................
