I REMEMBER I WAS SIX YEARS OLD
A WONDERFUL RAIN CAME AND LIGHTENED THE WORLD
HOW GOD GAVE THE EARTH A LOVELY BATH
HOW THE SENSES WERE ALERT


IT WAS EASIER TO SEE AND SMELL
HOW CLEAN EVERYTHING WAS AND NO SOAP
I WENT OUT AND PLAYED IN THE FRESHNESS
I CAN STILL RECALL THE SENSE OF NEWNESS


IT WAS A WONDERFUL SUMMER SHOWER
WITH NO STORM ATTACHED
A BLESSING I SHARED WITH GRAM
SOMEONE I LOVED, SOMETHING TO SHARE
