The rain pours through the roof and drips Droplets land upon saddened cheeks If only pain within wouldn't grip Rain coat from her closet she seeks Brand new colorful umbrella open Standing on her porch give gray a peek Slowly meander forward broken Into the gray, except for umbrella's shades Red, blue, green, gold reasons chosen Shades on shades from umbrella cascades Flows with the raindrops lands at her feet Sadness flows out, raindrops downgrades Colorful umbrella coats the street All the color drips in puddles deep Laughter escapes life is sweet

Wonderful truth in how difficult it can seem to go out in the rain, but once there, wonderland!
