Rain

Rain is the ambrosia of earth : it forms the source of life by enabling food production and serving as food drink.

If it fails, life starves even though earth is surrounded by oceans .
Even a grass straw does not rise.
Even the life of ocean suffers.
Even the prayers to God cease.
Even sanctity gets erased.
Total disorder prevails.

So let us appreciate the value of rain and preserve the precious water for life to prosper on earth.
