After only three rainfalls
In the last few months
(The so-called rainy season),
All of a sudden,
Since the Kuwait War was won,
We're being inundated
(With the gods' tears of relief?)
First, just after the cease-fire,
It rained and turned the dirt
At school to marble cake
Now, in the three weeks since,
Amid front-page news every day
About the five-year drought
And mandatory rationing,
We've started getting storm after storm
With heavy rain and even hail,
And still more storms are expected
For the remainder of the month
Whoever has been doing
The rain dance behind this
Certainly knows their stuff
