Rainy Day Reflections
Took my morning walk beneath
A slow but steady rain,
Protected by my new umbrella,
Carried not in vain.
Changed into relaxing clothes
At home and passed the hours
Catching up on reading, sheltered
From some piercing showers.
Packed my suitcase for a trip
And solved some crosswords, too.
A rainy day’s the perfect time
For things one needs to do.
I could accomplish just as much
If sunshine filled the sky
But in that case, to be indoors
I couldn’t justify.
