Rain By Shel Silverstein


I opened my eyes
And looked up at the rain,
And it dripped in my head
And flowed into my brain,
And all that I hear as I lie in my bed
Is the slishity-slosh of the rain in my head.

I step very softly,
I walk very slow,
I can't do a handstand--
I might overflow,
So pardon the wild crazy thing I just said--
I'm just not the same since there's rain in my head.

This poem reminds me of all those rainy days where I would be inside and love to spend hours looking outside. I do not really like to walk around the rain, yet always wanted to just run out and sing in the rain.
