Rain Check.

Stops you in your tracks, that rain.
Slows ya down,
Shuts ya up,
Calms ya down,
... if you let it.

My rain is your rain,
We share it.
And it smells good today
As I sit on the back porch and watch the puddles form against the pavement.

Some days, not every day,
We curse at the rain.
Changing our plans every which-away.
How dare you, rain!

But Today?

It slows me down,
It shuts me up,
It calms me down,
...I'm lettin it.
