Of Rain-flavored Memories...

'It’s such a nice day', raved Victoria, when she came home from school,

while the gray wind drew zig-zags, then circles in the puddles…

It’s a nice, nice day

Somber sky, pewter gray

Tug and pull wind-

Rain soliloquy

It’s a home-sweet-home tune

Clink of tea-cup and spoon

Of rain-circle banter

On mid-afternoon

Piano dum-de-doo

And my, I love you

It’s sock-feet and laughter

And biscuits and stew

It’s a nice, nice day

Almost perfect, I’d say
April-rain rhapsody

Drip-dripping away
