Walking in the Rain.

 Walking in the rain.

My every footstep causes mini tidal waves.

No one else is around.

They’re all at home, cuddled around a heater.

Trying to stay warm and dry.

 

I turn my face towards beautifully leaden skies,

Squinting as the raindrops dance along my skin.

I feel like I’m falling up.

Up, to join the raindrops in their victory dance,

The victory over the burning sun, her light.

 

I fall up and up and up,

Until I’m with the raindrops,

Dancing their dance,

And singing their song.

 

Their song,

It was the most beautiful song anyone had ever heard.

It spoke of falling for miles and miles,

Floating in the midnight sky,

Then landing in an unknown place.

Then falling back up again

Back to the clouds to start over.

 

The rain slowed, then stopped,

As the sun began to burn away the clouds.

I fell again, only down this time.

Down, down,

Till I landed back where I’d started,

Standing in the damp street,

Walking through puddles,

And enjoying every moment of it.

This is great!!! I for one love walking in the rain so much, and this made a simple walk in the rain so much deeper than just that. It's exactly how I feel when I go in the rain and you really captured it, this is amazing. I would usually say something to improve at this point but I truly can't think of anything, flawless.

:D Thanks for sharing

I love this! Walking in the rain is amazing. I enjoy the contrast between falling up/down (rain/sun)
