A Rainy Day
By Fatimah Abdolcader

A rainy day, 
no time to lay. 
Get out there and enjoy it! 
Before you know it, even though you think I’m thinking it, 
there is. . . 
Not a rainbow. 
It’s ok, 
just jump in the puddles all day. 
Splish splash 
that’s how you made a mash. 
Stick your tongue out, 
lick a snowflake, 
like a whole cake. 
Wait, do you see that?, 
It’s a dream come true!
Your friend came out and played with you, 
even though she is shy and new.
She brought an umbrella along with her too. 
But I could not believe it would occur. 
Oh my gosh, it’s something wonderful, 
and my friend gets to notice it a bit. 
It’s a rainbow! 
You slide on it until the unicorns come. 
When the unicorns come, 
its like you get a pot of gold. 
So don’t mold. 
Feel the breeze. 
Let your imagination blow. 
Make it just go with the flow. 
That’s why I love the rain.
