Spatters of bright hot sunshine mixed among dark clouds creeping intermittently,
they bring a shudder, a chill.
Relax, the rain is off in the distance.
I’d like to stay in the sun where it’s warm.
The sounds of splashing and children laughing. Where everything is bright green and it’s all alive,
even me.
A fake smile turned real.
I crane my face to the sky in gratitude for being ok. The storm might be heading right towards me,
and maybe,
when it comes I won’t run.
I’ll dance in the rain.
