I was so at loss of words when I woke up on May 1st to find it still raining from the previous evening and I had to borrow this poem to describe my delight and feelings...

Arabian Jasmine 'Maid of Orleans' - Jasminum sambac var. 'Maid of Orleans' - Jâtî

Rain, Rain don’t go away

Arabian Jasmine 'Belle of India' - Jasminum sambac var. 'Belle of India' - Jâtî

Rain, Rain I hope you stay

You make my friends think what they have lost

 Oleander - Nerium oleander - Karavîra

Chinese Ixora - Ixora chinensis

You make my friends happy for the one wish they made

Groundcherry - yet to be identified

 Black Lentil - Vigna mungo

Rain, Rain don’t stop falling

 Cannon Ball Tree - Couroupita guianensis

 So they can feel something one last time

 Asoka - Saraca indica

Rain, Rain I hope you kill the one who put pain in-

Mealy bug on Cape Honeysuckle

my friends of shame

Sugar Melon (scientific name anybody?)

Rain, Rain stop my friends from falling

Green Beans - Phaseolus vulgaris

Rain, Rain.I hoping it’ll put my friends pain in-

Gaura lindheimeri 'The Bride'

someone else's vase before it's too late

 Barbados Lily - Hippeastrum puniceum

Rain, Rain help them out so they will be amazed

Buds of Arabian Jasmine 'Belle of India' - Jasminum sambac var. 'Belle of India' - Jâtî

for there is no pain

Lantana - Lantana camara var. aculeata

 Amaryllis Lily - Hippeastrum hybrid
