The Rain
This story is called The Rain, written and recorded by LibraryCall.
There once lived a clever crow. She was so thirsty and could not find any water to drink.
A terrible drought brought sadness and fear to the forests. The once crystalline lake dried out and the jewel-like dew drops in the mornings were gone. The animals suffered deeply from the drought and many craved fresh water like The Crow.
The Crow’s thirst was unbearable and she could not give up her search. She approached the blue birds and asked them where she could find water.
“Dear Blue Birds, have you found any water?”
“No Dear Crow, we have been searching too.”
The Crow did not want to give up, even though her search seemed hopeless.
One day when the Crow was so parched that she could not focus on anything but water. She flew over the trees, through the villages, and the dried up lake. Her heart was heavy when she remembered the heavenly tasting water and the colorful rocks in the lake.
Finally The Crow flew back down to her home and gave up her search.
As she stood perched on a tree branch with a defeated look in her eyes, she saw her friend Blue Bird.
“Oh Blue Bird, I can’t seem to find any water. We are all going to die of thirst!”
“We can’t give up now, Dear Crow. There must be a way!”
The Crow remembered how strong the birds are and how they should never give up.
“Dearest Birds, if we work together and let the hope in our hearts shine, we can bring about the rain!”
The Birds joined together and sang a song for the rain.
Rain Rain Rain
Please come
And fill the earth with your puddles
And give us sweet water to drink.
When the birds sang their song, they felt a little drizzle on their feathers. They looked up to the sky and saw raindrops falling from the black clouds.
The Birds' song brought weeks of rain and the Earth was restored. The power of their will and friendship can bring anything, even the longest rain.
