Today

I catch raindrops on my head. Mum hated the rain, Dad didn't like it either, They never taught us bad. Another dull morning, I unfolded my rainbow umbrella, jaws dropped looking sad. Once I had been told not to play in the rain After spotting a reflection in a puddle, I got permission to pick berries from a friend's tree which lay in my palm. The kind lady spoke and said, "please eat they are free." I was never taught to take off strangers.
