I was jumping like some frog over
Puddles,
Leaf on top of leaf like little boats
In the water looking for some place
To dock though I hadn't reach yet,
Trying to avoid slipping on the floor
On rainy days, that's good but also has
Some disadvantages,
I think/is like trying to avoid death
Suddenly my mind trying to make
Sense of a post on Facebook I saw,
A twelve year old boy was shot by his mother
Two times all because of a memory card?
She had to be mentally ill in the head,
I almost slip lucky I caught my balance
Heartbeat quicken one 2
A car drive by a woman call out to me
"Watch your steps hun you don't want to
Slip there's a lot of rain puddles".
I smile nodding lips tight embarrassed
Sometimes you can avoid death and sometimes you can't.

A/N I love the rain is one thing but the puddles, and mud is a different thing, may that boy soul rip my heart ache every time I hear something tragic happens in the world please let's all make the world a better a place.
