i love rain

it's been raining for three days straight and i love it.

me and my friend just went out to buy cigarettes in the pouring rain and we forgot our umbrellas and raincoats on purpose. we didn't even wear shoes. and then we walked, jumped into puddles and got soaking wet. we did not give a damn and it was wonderful.

on another note, here's a rain poem.

i love rain

rain asking to get into fireplace-warm rooms
or begging me to dance in liquid sunshine
ice crystals dancing between raindrops
rain-sheets tied with multi-colored bows

i love rain - cold
shivery-down-my-spine rain
warm-kisses-rain on fluttering eyelashes
wet lightning-charged spring-perfumed

i love wearing patagonia layers
on cold-rain cambridge mornings
i love wearing wet t-shirts
on the warm island-of-a-hundred-rainy-days

i love rain
