Walking In The Rain

Rain-streaked slippery street
Wet dull sun instils melancholy
In the air, lamp shimmers on drenched pavement,
Weather-beaten souls in a variety of hats.
Pretty Girl in long flowing skirt holding
Bouquet of radiant yellow flowers,
A luminous aura of elation surrounds her
effervescent existence, 
Gentleman passing by with minimal care.

Hellol mala, I enjoy to walk in the rain. it does not bother me to be wet from the rain. Why run when it rains, you get wet anyway. Friendship & Love, /Darlene/
