Claris loves to dance
And kick her feet in the air
Especially her hind legs
Especially when the sun is shining
And the dew still glistens on the grass
Sometimes she dances in the garden
When the mood takes her
Like today
She is careful around the lavender
Because she knows that would cause that certain look of disappointment
And disappointment is sometimes worse than anger
She feels
But dance she must
And so dance she does
And as the rain starts falling
I wonder if it is indeed
A rain dance
