Every now and then with parched lips
the farmer looks up to the skies
to deliver the blessings of rain
but then knows he has to endure
the mighty trials and tribulation
of a long simmering Summer
before he can enjoy the fruits
of a cool pleasant Monsoon…
Perceptions 
Nice composition!
Thank you Indira
Oh, the rains…. We have been undone by too much snow which shrinks – it TAKES TWELVE INCHES OF SNOW TO EQUAL ONE INCH OF RAIN…BUT it’s something… every summer gets drier and drier despite snow… and where you are it is an endurance run. I FEEL so much empathy… these are hard times.
Times are changing and every year throws up many a challenge
Beautiful!
