I Make It Rain

Guess what, it's raining. Surprise! It is what it is, so grab wellies, an umbrella and a trench coat because its unavoidable.

Rain Classification System, a la junior high science class style:
Dripping Rain: A few raindrops, the beginning or end of a period of rain and a definite early warning sign(Latin: Checktheweatherandhopeitsright).

Spitting Rain: A light rain that doesn't necessarily warrant an umbrella, but will cause a damp sensation after about 10 minutes(Latin: Dontstraightenyourhair)

Intense Rain: A pounding type rain, one that makes driving in the car in scary due to limited visibility(Latin; dont'gooutside; DONTT-gu-oout-sEeyde).

Constant Rain: On and off raining all day, for days at a time. (Latin: lame).

In Vietnam, it was always raining. There was lil bitty stinging rain, big ole fat rain, rain that came from the side, and sometimes the rain even came up from the ground.And every now and then, when the rain stopped just enough that you could see the stars...and i thought of Jenny.
lol
Those are good pictures though, did you take them?
Have a good day...talk to ya laters

Rain, Rain, it comes from Spain, like an old flamenco dancer who now uses a cane.

Water, water, pouring down, runs your masquera- makes you look like a clown.

Puddles, puddles, small and mellow, unfortunately, this one is yellow.

Poems, poems, short and neat, I think this one stinks like feet.

The End.

You forgot British Rain.

British Rain: A soul-soaking deluge not seen since the days of Noah, or at least last Tuesday.
