Rain
— Shel Silverstein
I opened my eyes
And looked up at the rain,
And it dripped in my head
And flowed into my brain,
And all that I hear as I lie in my bed
Is the slishity-slosh of the rain in my head.
I step very softly,
I walk very slow,
I can’t do a handstand–
I might overflow,
So pardon the wild crazy thing I just said–
I’m just not the same since there’s rain in my head.

It makes me remember how as kids we would go out to play in the rain. Or deliberately take a walk in the rain. It was fun! Do kids do that anymore??
Yes!! Our parking lot at work is very puddle-friendly and kids are always slishity-sloshing about 🙂
I am so glad to hear that!
Hee!
