Rain Is Fun

By Sandra A. Metcalf-Moore

Rain is fun

As it splashes and sploshes.

I like to skitter in it

With my old galoshes.

I like it when raindrops

Pounce on my head

And trickle and dribble

And chill my nose red.

I like it when the wispy wind

Joins in the spree

And tousles my hair

As I frolic—whoopee!
