I lift myself in the rain;
The drip-drop-drip-drop left in my ears;
Off my raincoat raindrops sheer.

The cat on the sidewalk;
All wet in water sheets;
Wet of wetness is covering the black drenched streets.

All I want to know is how umbrellas fly;
How as a child to see all the colors in time;
A snapshot of my wild dreams;
Open up as the water rushes to my feet;

Take a chance and shake the sun, I say;
The downpour into my smile clouds run all day;
Off my skin, into my mouth, rain, rain, rain;
My reason for loving the rainy day.

This my favourite place to be;
As I remember, shaking my umbrella!

What a wonderful rainy poem, you described the day so perfectly. You make rainy days happy and bright, even with the sun don't shine
