A Wet August Day In Millstreet

 In the rushy fields just west of Millstreet Town
Old Finnow flowing bank high in flood waters of brown
And  stormwater gurgling in the roadside drain
From heavy and thundery mid August rain

The Summer drawing to a close and Autumn is near
And changeable weather for the time of year
The farmer is not doing well financially
And the wet and windy weather adds to his misery

Between the thundery showers spells of  warm sunshine
And the forecast for tomorrow is windy and  fine
The summer weather it was  wet overall
Duhallow could do with a warm and dry Fall

The old fields are covered in Nature's  wildflowers
They do seem to thrive in the thundery showers
And behind  the gray fog Clara hidden away
For Summer it is not a very nice day.
