What does this ancient poem mean?

This poem describes the drought caused by the scorching sun. Qu Zi expressed his longing for rain by complaining about the weather that thundered and didn't rain, which reflected his sympathy for the suffering of the working people. Seeing the crops dying in the sun, "I hope it will rain", but "it will pass in a few thunderbolts", from hope to disappointment, profoundly conveyed the psychological pain of working people.

The last two sentences of Xiao Ling's poem, "Give a few drops, it is difficult to quench my thirst with me", on the one hand, it shows that ordinary rain is not enough to alleviate the drought, because the drought is serious after a long time; On the other hand, it seems to extend from natural phenomena to social phenomena, showing a sense of worrying about the country and the people.
