Rain

The rain jumps on the grass.
Telling me to come play.
Stroking my hair,
Soaking my clothes.
Gently rocking me to sleep.
So when I wake looking to the sky.
Little drops of joy shower me with happiness.

The rains big warm arms embrace me,
Chasing me around the back yard.
They catch me, laughing,
They bring me to life.

Suddenly I feel my feet leave the ground,
I look as I rise into heaven.
A tall angel greets me,
I open my eyes to see my mum,
My angel from heaven.
