The First Rains

The first rains are pleasing.
They are quiet and amazing,
Beautiful and appealing.
They arouse beautiful feelings...

The first rains...
Introduce a new season
with so innocent emotions
And such pleasant notions.
They prelude a much difficult stage
Without scenes of outrage.
They never inform you of the ruin
That comes with the summer rain.

The first rains
Make you long for the summer.
Without informing you of the adversities
that comes with the near thunderstorms,
The hazardous hurricanes,
And the tears that comes with the tsunamis and tornados.

The first rains...
They never tell you of the real facts
that follows the pact.
You just enjoy the sweet rain,
Without thinking of the following pain...
The first rains...
Don't trust them for your gain.
