“It is raining. I am tempted to write a poem. But I remember what it said on one rejection slip: After a heavy rainfall, poems titled RAIN pour in from across the nation.”

Now that spring is quietly (but steadily) creeping in, I thought I’d celebrate. This song started playing on the way to college this morning, and I thought it too appropriate.
Electric Light Orchestra - Mr. Blue Sky
Sun is shining in the sky
There ain’t a cloud in sight
It’s stopped raining
Everybody’s in a play
And don’t you know it’s a beautiful new dayRunning down the avenue
See how the sun shines brightly in the city
On the streets where once was pity
Mister Blue Sky is living here todayMister Blue Sky please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long
Where did we go wrong?Hey you with the pretty face
Welcome to the human race
A celebration, Mister Blue Sky’s up there waiting
And today is the day we’ve waited forHey there Mister Blue
We’re so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Everybody smiles at youMister Blue, you did it right
But soon comes Mister Night creeping over
Now his hand is on your shoulder
Never mind I’ll remember you this
I’ll remember you this wayHey there Mister Blue
We’re so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Everybody smiles at you -
