Rainow (for the Fete)

Rainow in springtime is joyful and gay
Newborn lambs at frolic and play
Birds are nesting and daffodils shine
Mornings crisp when weather is fine

Rainow in summer is peaceful and fun
Sheep are sheared and farming tasks done
Gardens are tended in colourful ways
Sun may shine on some of the days

Rainow in autumn is golden and bright
Tree leaves turn and fall from their height
Daytime is shorter the Sun it shines less
Colours rich the bright skies address

Rainow in winter is homely and cold
Snow lies thick and dark nights are bold
The smell of wood fire a perfume and zest
Pubs and inns a comfort and rest

Rainow A village of laughter and smile
School is a place for children awhile
Our church so central for worship and prayers
Village shop for postage and wares

Rainow a village where people today
Enjoy the fete festive and gay
