I have always loved the rain
ever since i was little, when it would rain
i jump on puddles
i would purposely
get caught in the rain
and I would stay outside
until I was soaked
raindrops were my lullaby
watching the rain in your car
talking to you
i want to freeze that moment
Forever

Well (hastily placing  my bowler hat on the top of my head and sweeping up both duck and metaphor in my arms), I suppose I had better get going then.

I love poems that you just write on the spot, they're usually the best ones.  I like the last line, "I want to freeze that moment / Forever"

Um, er, excuse me, Boosflash. But I'm that idiot doing jumping jacks in the parking lot. But I'll stop if it's bothering you.

I like the brevity of each line; it adds a lot to the whole idea of the simplicity of adoration for the rain. I LOVE the poem itself because it reminds me of when I was little, and it gives me a lot of joy to be reminded of those moments. Thanks for writing this!

Your lines seem cut short, that's really interesting, it's like an abrupt and excited breath of air.
