RAIN

I opened my eyes
And looked up at the rain,
And it dripped in my head
And flowed into my brain,
And all that I hear as I lie in my bed
Is the slishity-slosh of the rain in my head.

I step very softly,
I walk very slow,
I can't do a handstand—
I might overflow,
So pardon the wild crazy thing I just said—
I'm just not the same since there's rain in my head.

Shel Silverstein

That is so cute!! I think I have rain in my head...when God gave out brains, I thought He said ‘rains’ and I asked for a lot!! My husband used to say that about his nose...his went ‘when God gave our noses, I thought he said ‘roses’ and I asked for a big red one...LOL!” Gotta make me a couple of hot dogs for lunch...just got back in! And I’m hungry!
