She lashes out at us all,
Just ride out her storm.

Sky’s mood is dark,
She lashes out at us all,
Just ride out her storm.

A drizzle of rain,
Grim to some but to others,
Puddle-splashing fun
Frog opens his eyes,
A golden ball makes a splash,
Quickly fortunes change.

Crowds wrapped up against the cold,

Extract from abstract,
Randomness given meaning,
Tell me what you see.

The Moon steals across the sky,
A thief in the night.
One drop starts a flood,
Mind awash with memories,
Eyes swimming with tears.

Right Time and Place conspiring,
A chance-meeting, say.

Enriching us all.
