Drizzly Drops

Overcast and light showers
Coffee House Writers / Ivor Steven

Small skinny raindrops
Dribble out of the stonewashed clouds 
Dripping like sheets wrung out to dry 
The birds keep singing, always able to cope 
Unperturbed by the grizzly sky 

My lightweight coat 
Feels like a warm bath-sponge 
And my shaggy dog 
Looks like a wet dirty mop 
He gives himself a watery shake 
I laugh, we continue on our way 
Nature’s gentle drizzly drops 
Give us no reason to stop
