spring brings rain
rain brings flowers
rain on my mind
many rainy days
my unused bicycle
glares at me
walking in a storm
gust of wind
steals my umbrella
rain on the bay
San Francisco
plays hide and seek
caught in a downpour
raindrops tap me on the shoulder
they say, “get inside”

Yes, I know that feeling, especially when it’s a heavy rain starting with those huge cold drops hitting your head and shoulders 😄

rain on my mind. When I was a teenager, I would ride my horse and sing “Raindrops Keep falling on my head”… and on a hot summer day, when a gentle down pour would breeze its way in – riding horses bareback was so much fun. 🙂 Thanks for the flashback.

Funny, I was for some reason thinking “sunshine on my shoulders” as I read about rain, and then your shoulder appears in the last haiku. 🙂

But rain is sorely needed for California I thought… probably a good thing…

I have biked the whole winter here… 🙂 Rain or snow is all OK to me.. but you have to dress up for it.

It keeps me in shape, improves the mood and I have fallen in love with it. I bike one day on and one day off. I am disabled (very bad knees) and can have some trouble walking at times so biking is my savior. My bike is 30 years old now! Do you use it as transportation or pleasure?
