Story Time: Walking in the Rain

Rain is falling from the sky, and everything looks fresh and clean. I step outside and feel tiny drops on my face.

Many people love the rain. They walk with umbrellas and wear bright raincoats. Children run and play, splashing in puddles and laughing loudly.

I walk in the rain, too. The water tickles my skin, and I can hear the soft pitter-patter as it falls. I take a deep breath and feel happy.

I twirl around with my arms wide open, spinning and smiling. The rain makes everything feel magical. The trees sway gently, and the ground shines with little drops of water.

Birds find shelter in the trees, and their chirping mixes with the sound of rain. I see a rainbow forming in the sky, and it makes me smile even more.

Walking in the rain is fun and peaceful. I feel refreshed and full of joy. Rainy days are the best!
