My spirit jumps up

To dance in the rain,

Hesitating, calculating, wondering

It looks through the window,

Discarding the thoughts

Beckoning, pleading and then gives up on me.

It twirls in the downpour of emotions

Soaking, refreshing and returns to me,

Its chirpy delight never fails to amaze me

Its youthfulness fill every inch of me,

Breathtaking, passionate, carefree.

It glowers in the dark

Seethes with anger,

Cringes with fear

Cool, unaffected the shield,

Raw, genuine, and unguarded

Unfettered as can be,

Hovering in the horizons

It stays with me.
