Come, let’s walk in the rain

forget yesterday’s pains

tomorrow’s turmoils

live for the moment, revel

in the elemental ecstasies,

capsule it for posterity-

I mean the memory of it-

to recount it

to our grandchildren

some day thus…

Once upon a time

there was a wooded hill

where cattle huddled

when the rain fell

slanting through the leaves.

What if they asked,“And what is rain…?”

Come, let’s walk in the rain

let’s live in the moment.
