Emotions are yellow rain boots splashing through puddles
the small pothole left in the ground
broken from the season before
as the rain rushes down to fill up the hole
the warm water gathers and stays
the young child skips by to jump through
the warm water that was left in the sun
rises up and hits the child's body
her rain boots filled with water and mud
she splashed again, harder
the water reachers her head and she found herself soaking wet
wet because the little puddle that sat in the hole
that was left there from the season before hit her
but she smiled.
