Summer in Montana, Pt. 1: Rain is a Good Thing

When it rains here in Bozeman, the weatherman complains.
I guess he forgot that rain is a good thing.
When it stops raining, the ground gets drier.
So does undergrowth. No rain starts fires.
The big gray rafts of dark gray clouds are like a balm for my brain.
I get days off work in the summer when it rains.

  1. Prompt: Start with a few lines from a song you like and add to it to make a poem. This one is based on a country song called "Rain is a Good Thing."
