Summer Fun Rains
Summer rains are beckoning
come outside, come play and sing
slip and slap, splish and splash
hear those raindrops falling fast!
Swing that old umbrella high
for now it is the time to fly!
Step in puddles, shoes get wet
live in the moment, no time to fret!
Simple rains do coax and tease
chasing childhood memories
swish and spatter, soak and splatter
no time to fuss, it doesn’t matter!
Spurt and sputter, clogged like butter
straying leaves clump and clutter
rain water rushes down a gutter
run fast away, no time to putter!
Golden leaf races wild, astray
down the pipe and towards the bay
chase that crazy leaf away
so glad I came outside today!
