After prancing about back to mom we would go ..and here: Then quick to the tub with her two boys in tow..............i suggest putting she'd go after quick [or quickly] i enjoyed the story and rhyming and, especially, the last stanza. to MyPoemList. bri ;)

A nostalgic feeling well expressed. Great poem. Kudos

The past is always part of us. Nice work.

Lovely poem.. nothing like the rain to bring in freshness and fun.. to bring in nostalgia of a wonderful rain drenched world viewed from a child's eye.. and now I watch my own two boyz plowing through puddles caused by a passing rain storm and I watch my frown and scowl and wonder why.. thanks for sharing

a wonderful lyrical poem about list craefreeness of childhood

I really like this poem, reflecting on our uncomplicated childhood days, when we took the time to play and appreciate the simple things life had to offer.

Delicious, fresh and fun. Keep posting, you are a great poet! I put you into my favorite list.

Wonderful poem, so well written, I remember jumping in puddles with wellies and splashing everyone, Oh, the joy of being young.

AH! Reminds me of the poetry my mom read to us as kids! You have no idea the joy your writing brings to me! Well done!

Very good one Dick - and yes, I agree, when we were young the weather didn`t seem to be such a big issue, but now I find the rain to be an annoyance (and we get plenty of it here in GB! !) . I suppose we should appreciate it more and how vital it is for our existence, especially when there are countries where they suffer from a lack of it and don`t have clean water to drink.
