My Favorite Rain

My favorite kind of rain

Fell down on me today

It's smaller than a sprinkle

Lighter than a lady bug

You can't even see it

'til it collect's on your window

It's hails little brother

Snow's second cousin, twice removed

it'll never cause a wreck

 Or close down a school

Oh but that little sprinkle

With its every tiny drop

I'll squint my eyes and smile 

 Hoping the tingle doesn't stop

You paint surrealism with your words. And the image is stunning.

Oh but that little sprinkle
With its every tiny drop
I'll squint my eyes and smile
Hoping the tingle doesn't stop

Gorgeous!

Rain on. Never heard anyone describe a particular kind of rain before...must be raining in your neck of the woods recently, cuz you cornered the market on it. great writing.
