Miracle Oasis

There was a desert, dry, hot and empty,
Never a drop of rain, but its neighbors got plenty
"If I only had a chance I know I could grow,
into a beautiful place, with a river that flows",
And everywhere else thought it was just a dream, there was no way
"For that place to grow it would have to rain for 30 days!"
And the desert would scream for just a little rain,
Just one little storm to take away the pain,
And for years he begged the clouds to send some down,
"Just save a little for me when you soak the next town,"
But it always stayed that same brown sand
And he finally realized this must be God's plan
Until one day the wind blew over just a drop
One drop of water, meant for a nearby crop
that God carried on air until it hit this spot
and sunk into the ground and spread all the way out
and miraculously the ground shook and began to sprout
And people came from far and from near
took planes, trains and boats to get here
to see the desert that turned into an oasis
with one little drop of water meant for other places
and what if no one would've ever known
what a miracle that day was blown
on a wisp of air to a desperate place
that never got rain and yearned for a taste
for centuries that desert begged to dance
and after he'd given up he finally got the chance
