It’s My Sweet Refrain

dancin’
in the rain
soil
down
the drain

dripping elbows
dripping ears
puddled feet
hidden tears

yes
dancin’
in the rain
it’s
my sweet refrain

like
a birdie
in the bath
or
a duck
on sprinkled path

I’m
refreshed
and kinda cool
lookin’
like
a silly fool

but
I don’t care
I’ll break the rule
and
all my friends
will surely drool

at the
freedom
that I dare

hehehe

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Virginia - love this as I just came in from the rain!! Only, I wasn't dancin'.....it was a "feet don't fail me now" race from the car to the house.lol. Chris

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.

Delightful! I love rain! Gentle rain---and not so gentle rain! I love every kind of rainfall. I like to walk in the rain without an unbrella---I want to feel it against my skin---it' invigorating, refreshing, revitalizing and very cleansing! I feel so close to God and nature.

I enjoyed reading this very much!

Virginia this is so whimsical. I love splashing in puddles and acting like a little kid.

Great, just great.  Hugs, Marti

Every now and then take a good look at something not made
with hands -- a mountain, a star, the power of the ocean.
There will come to you wisdom,
