walk with me in the spring rain,
when the air is newly dusty
and small cool drops soak
my tepid shoulders.
if you walk slowly in the spring rain
you know its caring lap
its simple smile and soothing eyes,
you've lain in its still breath.
if you walk in the spring rain
come walk slowly with me
so that we can walk
as if rain fell every day.
