Rain?

 
Rain!?
 
 
I Love rain---always have…since little-on!
Cool!---Refreshing-clean!...Sweet-smelling!
A permission---to relax…enjoy relief!
And---for Mother Nature-Love?...Life!
For a “little”-boy?---fun…adventure!
 
Our street did not have concrete gutters; any hard rain ran
a river between our grass and the oiled and chipped pavement.
 
The river-wild flowed white-water rapids (albeit on a miniature-
scale) where a curious-boy might sail his armada of ships ( tiny-
twigs cast in to the liquid-fantasy) to oceans awaiting adventure!
 
One storm might well result in a trip down the ole Mississip on a
long-boat with Dan’l Boone trapping and trading native-Indian tribes.
 
Another summer-deluge might bring an aircraft-carrier launching a
sortie to route the enemy from some ocean-island to win-the-day!
 
Or---build a dam…to create a sailing lake for white-triangles wild.
 
And, quick---before the river recedes…wade-deep an adventure-wet!
 
Yonder! Comes a car---splashing liquid-fun…Mom won’t be happy!
 
In an hour or two---the fun resides until…another rainy-day soon!
 
(simple-humble)-I---His servant…accepts the gift and celebrates!
 
Amen!
