Those Rainy Nights in Georgia

by Greg Asimakoupoulos

Posted: September 27, 2009

Giving Mother Nature the respect she demands…

Just a rainy night in Georgia?
How they wish it was just one.
Countless days of nonstop downpours
have Atlantans on the run.

Widespread flooding has proved tragic.
Children have been swept away.
Tears of sorrow fall like raindrops
as it was in Noah's day.

Now as then we are beholden
to the force of nature's whim.
Even those quite wise and wealthy
quickly bow to floods and winds.
