NOW NOW YOU KNOW HOW I AM

to share in the hope

in a-cleansing rain

oh, rain, oh, rain, 

oh, wonderful rain

oh, come to erase fear

there is not nothing 

like wonderful rain

are you awake hereafter 

and do you remember

what it feels like

deep enough to drown

no easy way down saves moves

so get on up and put on those shoes

let's go put on those shoes

comb that helpless hair

you and i a-try getting across 

through the streams, freshness

in the sensations

watching the disturbance

across the surface

with expressing, expressing over again 

and walk on, walk on

i shall change to convene 

of lines and signs to seek onetime 

wondrous and brief

you shall want always to see

the sunrays in the air lovely

the leaves shine ways

it must be i assume

we saw in the first sight

stream along brightly

isn't it weird wet dawn

in the sweet destiny of the sky

what we doing now

now now you know how i am

i could stay right here in

another way wakes us up to feel good

extending a hand clutching

i'm fetching flowers

until everything is gone

until that rain lent you and me

that happy tail feeling 

of everything to know 

when wonderful rain comes to pass

in good or fine weather 

and even in this day, what is best

i'll take me a-stroll over

the birds chirping cheer up

the rain won't let me forget so soon

standing on my own two feet

when everyone wants 

to run away and retreat home

i stay and take my pains

in my head befallen my means

looking straight at it forming

and letting it fall

on the face, all those lines

to vent or pretend

does that count for

something significant

clean away gone sadness

there of and there by 

cloudy poems shiny

flowers do not fade

they close and open again

looks like an awkward parade 

wet grass smells clean the rain falls

embrace to understand

for you i have both

not anything rough around

are you awake hereafter

and do you remember

what it feels like

deep enough to drown

no easy way down saves moves

so get on up and put on those shoes

let's go put on those shoes

comb that helpless hair

you and i a-try getting across 

through the streams, freshness

in the sensations

watching the disturbance

across the surface

with expressing, expressing over again

and walk on, walk on

i shall change to convene 

of lines and signs to seek onetime 

wondrous and brief

you shall want always to see

the sunrays in the air lovely

the leaves shine ways

it must be i assume

isn't it weird wet dawn

in the sweet destiny of the sky

what we doing now

now now you how i am

i could stay right here

another way wakes us up to feel good

extending a hand clutching

i'm fetching flowers

until everything is gone

until that rain lent you and me

that happy feeling

of everything to know

i know the road

i got a-dotty umbrella

yellow and red

not anything rough

should you need 

one to erase fear

never fails to amaze 

how i feels in all of life's base 

and its bitter entanglements disappear

as when i am here undergoing

and pulling it down

outta no-where

at the new dawn to find

i know the road

i got a-dotty umbrella

yellow and red

not anything rough around

listen to the rain pour hit hard

although it's not for someone else 

what else, i could go on

watching the wheels

and the rest of the little world

oh, rain, oh, rain

oh, wonderful rain

there is not nothing 

like wonderful rain

in what world i felt 

the flowers passions be

blooming with joy

now i feels as though

i'm going through 

a passage misunderstood

a message left 

a spend bloom dead

with rising, rising, rising over again

everyday, drifting petals

in a-cleansing rain

completely filled 

and emptied again

to hold the rain 

farther than we both can go

twopence, twofold

everything can't be

something must be

outta my own self one cover

of a-kinder extreme

stream along brightly

free a-little longer 

for an instant blank 

a-comfort opening to stay

sunshine straight up

i think i know how

since i have not seen a lot to say

when we troubled

what is going on 

wash away gone sadness

there of and there by 

cloudy poems shiny

flowers do not fade

they close and open again

looks like an awkward parade

wet grass smells clean the rain falls

embrace to understand

for you i have both

not anything rough around

are you awake hereafter

and do you remember

what it feels like

deep enough to drown

no easy way down saves moves

so get on up and put on those shoes

let's go put on those shoes

comb that helpless hair

you and i a-try getting across 

through the streams, freshness

in the sensations

with expressing, expressing over again

and walk on, walk on

i shall change to convene

of lines and signs to seek onetime

that happy feeling

of everything to know

i got a-dotty umbrella

yellow and red

not anything rough around

should you need now

one to erase fear

into the gentle windings 

of circles then upon tumbles

the movements we go

why it's my kind of thing 

incites gives me feelings

tender i want you 

to see when it rains 

it pours slow all into the value 

of a poem at one end

let my joy be known

going over it again

i never say anything   

in a-cleansing rain

for an instant blank

sparkles along the riverline

it'll nicely pass us by

i sit stay loose because once

i knew i will get to

continue through 

the leaves shine ways
