Dr John Celes - Sonnet: The Farmer

The farmer gazes at the sky for signs, br If rain could come within the next few days! br The summer sun continuously still strains; br ‘To sow the seed, the rain must come, ’ he prays. br br His field is ploughed and ready for sowing; br The seed was sowed and seedlings too are born; br The rain must come in time for their growing; br The cloudless sky fills up his heart with scorn. br br But suddenly, from sky the lightning strikes! br And thunder comes followed by heavy rain; br The farmer shouts with joy like o’er a mike; br Aft’r all, God saved his crops this year again.
