I'm a Puddle-Lover

I’m a puddle-lover,
she said,

and I fell in love
all over again.

The day was rainy gray
as you’d expect in the
December Northwest,

but four words
and a splash and a giggle
brought back September’s sunshine
and thawed my soul,

so I jumped in
with all my years and worries
and the weight lifted
as I renewed my affair with puddles.

I giggled and she laughed
and I fell in love again.
