Another Rainy Day

While waiting for sun enjoying the water of laughter and fun just drip, drop, dribble No dampening of spirits here, doesn’t matter so let the rains come, and I will just sing along… The birds are twittering in the trees joining in nature’s mini concert The wind is whistling, Then whooshy~ whoosh! of the drumbeat rains and slish sloshing puddles Just to break the monotony Then amidst the gray I will wear fuchsia pink I’ll just imagine I’m at sea Pink toes with metallic pewter nails what the heck, let me wade through it even though it’s kind of ewwy As the flood waters rise, with these rains I will sail away Doesn’t matter if the sky is falling, I’m feeling high and happy, so I will let my hair down 05302011613p630 For Matt’s Backwards poem contest :)

Chicken Little just gave the warning, so have a great sail. ON the way, if you see the owl and the pussy cat in their pea green boat, say Hi. I always enjoy your stuff so much. Love, Dave

It's such a lovely poem, Nikko - I didn't even realise it was backwards, til I saw the footnote. I loved the flood waters that were kind of ewwy LOL
