If I were a plant Thoughts talk endlessly Walking in the rain. Which drops will wet me And which drop falls vain? Torrents are flowing Through chasms that turn From some I will glean For some I will yearn. I'm wet to the bone No shelter no door I walk in the rain And feel it no more. If I were a plant With roots in the ground Would be no question Which drop would be sound. |

"I walk in the rain And feel it no more." Seymour, love the way you express yourself. This is grand writing. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
