City Rains
Rain in the city!
I love to see it fall
Slant wish where the buildings crowd
Red brick and all.
Streets of shiny wetness
Where the taxis go,
With people and umbrellas all
Bobbing to and bro.
Rain in the city!
I love to beat it drip
When I am cosy in my room
Snug as any sheep,
With toys spread on the table,
With a picture book or two,
And the pains like rumbling tune
That sings, through everything I do.
