Fur coat dripping from cloud perspiration

Soaked to the bone she races

Sprints through the drops as she howls

The best times in life are when it rains

Anticipation fills her as she spots a puddle

Knowledge of soon being even more drenched

Running quickly she dives in

Disturbing the puddle's slumber it springs into the air

She silently grins with joy

Days pass and sun stays shining

Poor little fox feeling lost and lifeless

She prays for a down pour

She hopes to break free with the gift of rain

When dark clouds fill the sky she awakens

Raindrops begin to fall and she waits

Each drop that touches her coat brings her a new sense of life

Again she runs

She howls

She sprints

All because of those wonderful raindrops

No one understood but the fox needed the rain

Even in drought she would find a way to get rain

The rain was her spirit and friend

Any time you see a storm I bet that you'll find the fox in the rain.
