The sky weeps grey, a drumming beat,

On rooftops high, on paven street.

But in my heart, a joyous tune,

For rain and I, we sing in June.

No umbrella shields this happy head,

Barefoot I dance, with joyful tread.

Puddles mirror skies above,

Sparkling jewels for skipping love.

Red rain-kissed cheeks, a carefree grin,

Soaked to the skin, yet joy within.

Car splashes by, a startled honk,

But I just laugh, a joyful monk.

The world slows down, a blurry sight,

As raindrops blur the city's light.

Each puddle jump, a tiny feat,

A dance with rain, on slickened street.

No time for frowns, no time for fear,

Just rain and me, and laughter clear.

A child's delight, a simple glee,

Rainy skipping sets my spirit free.

Elegy
