Mommy,
It’s been two weekends already.
Why is the rain waiting for
Saturday and Sunday,
To pour down as heavy as can be?
Tako, Markus, Maximus, and me
We can’t go out in the garden and play.
And when will the winter cold go away,
And the sun will shine, to brighten my day?

Mommy,
Who do I ask
To drive the rainclouds away?
Who do I ask
To bring back the blue sky for me to see?
Who do I ask
To give me just one sunny day
So that together, you and me
Can stay in the garden all day.
You can smell your roses, and
I can play.
