Dancing In the Rain

Large pearl water drops drip from the sky

Fall onto my skin

Slide down my body

Large pearl water drops drip from the sky

Making my clothes stick

Securing my hair to my face

Large pearl water drops drip from the sky

Forming puddles for me to splash in

Quenching Earth's thirst

Large pearl water drops drip from the sky

Illuminous bolts of lightening light up the sky

Loud beats of thunder tremble down from the sky

All this making a storm

Trying to ruin my day

But I know how to dance in the rain

-Note...Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass.  It's about learning to dance in the rain

Wow, it began so light and breezy, but you ended with quite a profound message, Alli. We should all emulate your ability to "dance in the rain." Excellent work! Love, Carolyn

this was written very beautifully and to anyone who reads this personally we should all be changed by taking something as simple as rain into something that ppl can learn from everyday and your words are like art painting a picture inside my mind..thank you, tiffany
