A Poem

This is another of my daughter’s poems, which she wrote as a child.

The Rainy Day

By Gayatri T Rao

Once in a while, I get this chance;

To step into the rain and happily dance.

Raindrops fall, quick and fast.

Will this situation ever last?

The sultry summer has given way,

To such a season and beautiful day.

The roads have developed puddles.

And potholes have increased the muddles.

With the culmination of a good shower,

In the drain overfilled with mud and water;

I want to run a paper boat,

Very much like a 5-year old.

Sunshine and rainwater, when go together,

A rainbow, with VIBGYOR, will appear.

Will I be able to check its end;

Which has, I’m told, real treasure?
