My Playmate the Rain

The fragrance of the original rose Takes me to the past Distant pasts When I was a child And I thought often And was asking myself why? And I had no answer I was looking at distant horizons And kept quiet My head was empty And my heart was full It was full of thoughts Full of sweet feelings That were warm And tied me to the rose bushes And then when the thunder roared I was not afraid And when it rained It made me happy That smelled the rain From the soil of the street That I jumped And let the rain into my eyes That the rain was not was no tears That it was cold and wet And it was clean And I loved it As if it were my playmate
