I took a crazy chance today

when the sky fell out

to put on my polka-dot boots 

and go out without an umbrella.

Cold drops trail down my hood

as all the passers-by hustle away

from the clear fresh sign of spring

filling potholes with rainbows

and pouring rivers down the street.

Spinning around humming a tune

forgetting all my worries

letting them pass like falling drops

I choose today instead of despair

To dance in the rain.

Hey everyone!! In case you haven't guessed it, I love rain. Or at least the idea of it as long as there isn't a thirty mile an hour wind with it. It's less fun when your umbrella blows inside out. Sometimes you just need to dance to make the best of a seemingly bad situation. Thanks for reading.
