SPRING WALK

SPRING WALK

The day was dawning bright and clear,
waking the soul to nature's call -
I'd go out for a nice spring walk
to enjoy the beauty of it all.

I was lost in thought as I walked
and covering more than a mile or two,
I didn't notice the approaching storm;
for me the day was still bright and new.

The rain began to softly fall
gathering strength and speed;
Soon drenching me completely,
a surprise shower I didn't need!

I jogged on home and went inside,
toweling off my rain-soaked hair;
There's nothing like a spring walk
to lift you out of everyday care!
