Liquid Sunshine :-)

This morning's rain inspired this one. :-) Behind every cloud is a silver lining. :-)


Poem Artwork

It's raining little girls.
They laugh their way down from the clouds,
Losing their footing on my face
Because of tears already there--

They titter their way down my cheeks,
Giggling their way past my nose
Tickling their way to my ears
Enticing a smile from my lips--

They whisper memories I had,
Memories I had forgotten
Until this one moment in time.
They want me to jump in puddles--

I'm not as young as I once was.
And won't it look ridiculous??
I am supposed to act my age.
They will say I have lost my mind--

But who cares.  Get out of the way.
It's about time I have some fun.
And so I take a running leap
And splash into the deepest one--

The biggest, the soggiest one,
I am sure that I look a sight!
I can't recall why I was sad.
Thank God for little girls.

I seen the title and was thinking like Ed. But, as always I wasn't disappointed. Every now and then, its great to forget how old (or young) we are. Just do it...
