Washing Away the Blues
Folder:
2002 Poetry The rain drizzles down as I walk along
Humming, dancing and singing a song
Walking in the rain is wonderful thing
It's one of the joys into your life it can bring
The drops in you face make you squint so slightly
Putting a smile in your heart that shines so brightly
You walk along losing all track of time
Letting the water wash away the grime
The grime that lingers from life's misfortunes
That just seem to stay like windless balloons
Until you feel the moisture soaking through
Getting rid of everything that makes you feel blue
It's good for your soul and disposition too
Making you think about things that are true
True to your heart and soul that give meaning
Things that are pure and need no intervening
When you're done you are soaked but really don't care
Because you've looked within and become fully aware
Of what it means to live life and enjoy what you've got
Rather than feeling depressed about what you have not
