why would one hide in such weather…
splash instead, it is so much more fun
jump from puddle to puddle
making sure every jump is a cannonball of
glee...fully
stand at the curb by a great big puddle
so when the cars speed by they shower you with
surprises
and kick water at them
why would you save all the fun for them
practice your tai chi
in the middle of the road
in the middle of the deepest puddle
standing on one leg
lifting your arms high
and curving your body in meditation
just before swan
diving
into the depths of the urban pond
it is only laundry
this is only skin
and this is so much fun
for the big dripper

I'm all for playing in puddles but playing in traffic is another story!
Ah, you made me smile :-)
Very fun poem!
I am all for fun.
