Relentless
Relentless raindrops ricochet
And race in rivulets,
Creating perfect puddles
Boots will trounce with no regrets.
It's rare that such intensity
Will keep up at this pace,
Reminding us that Nature
Likes to put us in our place.
So bring it on and let it pour -
The windshield wipers work
And with umbrellas there's no need
From planned events to shirk.
The rain, relentless though it seems,
Eventually will slow
And we can thank our lucky stars -
At least it isn't snow!
