Rain

I have had a good day. This morning I went to swim team, then I came home and decorated a cake for my little brother.Daniel turns 12 on Monday, but he's having his party today! This afternoon I went out to lunch with Becca Long... I won the contest on her blog like a month ago of who could comment the most. Anyway, that was a fun time, we had some enjoyable conversation. Tonight I have a meeting at Rivi about my job.

I know alot of people think rain is depressing, and I have to admit sometimes it can be, but recently I've fallen in love with the rain... which is why I looked up this poem and decided to post it:

I love the rain
For the difference
That it brings
Adding a new personality
To the day

Each puddle
Its own little world
Each drop
Adds another character
To the picture

The eerie sky
Creating a melodramatic background
As life goes on
Playing out the passions
As depression rears its head
Searching for a helpless victim
Among the million of candidates
Pouting about the rain

-Harry Rainey
