The rain is raining all around my sister Bella
and me; pounding a rhythmic beat on top
of our pretty colorful umbrellas
as we hold them high, high above our heads.

Utter excitement virtually spreads.
Our spoiled hearts and spirits, begins to soar.
We are perfectly waterproof wearing
yellow and red raincoats and galoshes.
Wanting more, more rain to rain all-around,
hearing those raindrops falling to the ground.
Jumping up and down in puddles making
splish-splash sound wishing it will never stop.

The rain, the welcome cool, cool rain daring; 
jumping, giggling, and singing with pleasure.

As I fall down on the wet ground with a
big Kerplop! With a jubilant bark, Frasier
our dog runs up to me, paws on my chest
smothering me with wet kisses being a pest.

That is such a nice memory. Today the i-phone would fall into the mud and self-destruct...

What lovely images you evoke, Eve! Such fun and excitement! I love the rain in early autumn when the temperature is still high; as a child I had a great time running barefooted in the rain in just a top and shorts:) Hugs // paul

Well written Eve, there's something about a good downpour but I'd rather be inside looking out. Good luck. Tom
