Such fun and visually pleasing. Kids dancing in the rain, splashing in puddles in red wellies. Loved it. Pity us adults don't take a leaf out of their book.

hahaha, I'm sure that honey toast is like heaven, Neville. Thanks very much for your comment. :)
I love this! I always let my kids dance in the rain! So many memories for me! I like your wording… it’s genuine and real to me. A perfect picture in my minds eye. Well done! 💦

I thank you, Susan. You're a top-notch writer so your comment means a lot to me. 😃😁
Woww what a masterpiece quality poem as two toddlers frisk in the rain and it clothed them superly with your poetic pen and your muse ended so masterfully. Kudos!!!
I was a teacher for forty years. I still am in a way. Throughout my career I learned that the teacher learns from the pupil as much as the other way around. And perhaps what they learn from this innocence is well worth more.
A wonderful image created here.

Thank you so much for such a kind review, Ken. It's much appreciated. :)
I think we adults can learn from the children. Even here in Kyiv, despite the dangers closing in on us, I still see children playing undeterred. Their innocence is a precious commodity. I sure hope many of the children here retain that youthful outlook and are not disturbed by all they are witnessing. Their fabric of future memories may be torn and tattered otherwise. Lovely lines, Relic. ❤

Thank you,Inessa. I'm praying for you and the children of Kyiv.
What a lovely write! I especially like your closing lines...(youth is a moment cleaved to the cloth made from the fabric of future memories.) That is such a fabulously poetic thought! ~Sharon

Thanks so much for your comment, Miss Sharon. It's much appreciated.
We adults could take a lesson from children as pictured in this offering. The two kids depicted here are able to enjoy simple things like playing in the rain. There is no need to posture, to compare or compete, just mutual enjoyment in the present moment. Somehow that marvelous ability gets hijacked by the years, replaced by worry, envy, resentment and a host of other things. I mean, really, can you imagine Putin playing in the rain?
