I wish for you Wednesday

I wish for you a rainstorm

that lasted for a day;

To wash away your sadness

and give you time to pray.

It would cover up your tears,

and then you'd surely see

That rainbows follow rainstorms

to brighten land and sea.

The grass seems a shade greener

the sky a dazzling blue;

Flowers open up closed buds,

the air feels crisp and new.

Everything seems fresh again,

the old was washed away;

Everything is clean again,

to start a brand new day.

Sometimes saddened hearts are like

the storm clouds that cause rain;

That wash us with such sadness

and fill us with such pain.

But when the rain has ended

you'll look outside and see

The colors of a rainbow

to fill your heart with glee.

 

I wish for you a rainstorm

simply because I care.

May it wash away your pain

and let you know I'm there;

When the rain clouds dull your sky

now you will surely know

That when the storm is over

I will be your rainbow.
