I love the rain too and love that cute RLS poem...it made me think of this one. I taught it years ago to my little homeschooled pupils. :)Rain in the NightRaining, raining,All night long;Sometimes loud, sometimes soft,Just like a song.There'll be rivers in the guttersAnd lakes along the street.It will make our lazy kittyWash his little dirty feet.The roses will wear diamondsLike kings and queens at court;But the pansies all get muddyBecause they are so short.I'll sail my boat to-morrowIn wonderful new places,But first I'll take my watering-potAnd wash the pansies' faces.by Amelia Burr
I'm very much enjoying you sharing the book of verse with us all.

ReplyDeleteRain in the Night
Raining, raining,
All night long;
Sometimes loud, sometimes soft,
Just like a song.
There'll be rivers in the gutters
And lakes along the street.
It will make our lazy kitty
Wash his little dirty feet.
The roses will wear diamonds
Like kings and queens at court;
But the pansies all get muddy
Because they are so short.
I'll sail my boat to-morrow
In wonderful new places,
But first I'll take my watering-pot
And wash the pansies' faces.
