Poetry/ Clouds are Building Fast in Charleston, Rain is on the Way


Clouds are building fast in Charleston, Rain is on the Way.
From days of blue, we knew too few, now, Rain is on the Way.
Once peaceful shores, From days of yore, call, Rain is on the Way.
Now darkened skies, bring mournful eyes because, Rain is on the Way. 

As all look to Heaven as the cold wet winter falls.
From Isle of Palms to Folly Beach, to the Holy Cities halls.
Just one more rain, just one more drop, till Summer comes to call.
April rains and Summer squalls leave sunshine for us all.

Behind those clouds that fog all lies, as, Rain is on the Way.
We'll see tomorrow through young eyes, as, Rain is on the Way.
And even if no water falls, and soon we see light, still Rain is on the Way
Its natures way and natures call, that brings the morning light, So once more will I say.

Clouds are building fast in Charleston, Rain is on the way.
