Sorry that this is not a meme. Hope you enjoy it though.
It's because he couldn't. That is why I think Dragon is NOT the user of "rain god" devil fruit. He's the user of "wind god" devil fruit, inspired by The Feathered Serpent from Aztec/Maya mythology. In Aztec mythology, the Feathered Serpent ("wind god") is said to be the guide and sweeper of road for the "rain gods". So Dragon is not the "rain god" user himself. It was someone else who was also there in Loguetown, around the same time as Dragon, as the actual "rain god" user. In the manga, the sound effect of rain is used similarly with how Zaza appears. I'm speculating that person was also the one creating thunder that hit Buggy. They was also the one helping the Straw Hats sail to Reverse Mountain.
The user of "rain god" devil fruit doesn't have to be Nefeltari Lili. Let's open to other possibility. Yes, the people of Arabasta wish for rain. But it could be that a user of said devil fruit who came to them, not the fruit itself. Someone from outside Arabasta. This way, the desire of wanting rain can be fulfilled without Lili having to eat the fruit. Here's a theory by u/MrBushido56:
We need more dynamic (not just zoan)
Blackbeard will have the "rain god" devil fruit!!! Zehahaha = Zazazaza. It's the sound of rain! Rain god is also sea god! Because sea god in mythologies usually has the ability to control weather! In stories, Davy Jones love the sea! Blackbeard is part of Davy clan! ZEHAHAHA!
He says so himself (I found that image on facebook)
I wrote my theory here:

But if you want it in short: Pochita was the chainsaw devil born out of human fear. And then at one time, chainsaws were no longer used for birth. The fear disappear. But Pochita already created fear among devils. So he still exists, not as chainsaw devil, but as chainsaw man devil, represents the fear of being erased by chainsaw man. The devils' fear of him is what defines him now.
Nola the serpent from Skypiea is actually Dragon. He does care about Luffy!!! He's been watching over him! Well, he eats Luffy once but hey, that might be a hug🥰
