Vivien Wade Poet Villanelle

Dance In the Rain

DANCE IN THE RAIN  

Come and let us wash all our cares away
dancing in this gentle rain together
to enjoy every moment of the day.

Join in with me, oh come and don't delay
this time we have will not last forever
come and let us wash all our cares away.

In mud puddles we can joyfully play
act like gleeful children being clever
to enjoy every moment of the day.

Showers continue down we dance and pray
giving grateful thanks for worries never
come and let us wash all our cares away.

These springtime showers that are on display
shimmering drops that sparkle together
to enjoy every moment of the day.

Precious is this child-like fun we now play
so join with us in this rainy weather
come and let us wash all our cares away.
to enjoy every moment of the day.
