A Rainy Rarity

It was midnight at noon,
Or so it seemed.

A very sunny day,
Just minutes before.

In came the wind,
And that was when

Clouds like a curtain
Were drawn across the sun.

Darkness invaded the light,
And for a brief few minutes,

Rain poured with a mighty fall.
The sudden appearance of rain

Caused neither flood nor pain;
And just as suddenly, the rain also

Ceased, giving way to that sunny day.
I attest to the rarity of rain like that;

And 40 years removed from that rainy
Scene has not erased that rainy memory.
