Dance of the Rain

I would not own an umbrella
I love to feel the rain
flowing down on me
soaking me with the scent of
purity from the clouds

Dripping head to toe
Splashing in the puddles

A joyous tide
washing over me,
a deluge of emotions
taking over me
as I dance with the rain

I would not own an umbrella
