It Is Raining In Macroom Today

The fields by the Sullane lush and rich green resplendent in their wildflowers of May
And the nesting birds chirping and singing but it is raining in Macroom today
The cattle out of wintering sheds from months of eating silage and hay
On nutritious young grass getting fatter and contentedly chewing their cuds whilst at rest they lay
But it is drizzling rain in Macroom by the Sullane with only a very slight breeze
And the weather it is cool though not cold a weather forecast high of some sixteen degrees
The deciduous trees looking quite healthy in their new Summer leaves of green
And though the sun behind gray clouds is hidden Nature at her finest is seen
In the dark pools of the Sullane River the brown trout are jumping for fly
And the dark barn swallows are chirping chasing flying insects low in the sky
It is not the best of Spring weather though not unusual for the time of year
And the call of the migratory cuckoo is always such a nice sound to hear
The rain is falling in a light drizzle and the sun hidden behind clouds of gray
And though Nature is looking resplendent it is raining in Macroom today.
