Rainy Day

I wanted to share to short
Stories with you from my personal writing journal.  They're both about rain!  Hope you like it!

Rainy Day Cupcake

On a quiet rainy day, I'm looking out the window.  It's pouring and the smog is everywhere, even inside.  The site makes me sad.  Mom's in the kitchen, and Daddy's at work already.  School's not for another half an hour.

So I take a swirl of happy, a cup and a half of smiles, and a full quart of excitement.  I mix it in with a dash of shooting stars and a pint of sunshine.  I wash out the rain and grey and bake my creation with a summer day.  Then I add some rainbows for icing and flowers for sprinkles and wrap my creation in a sunny day's clouds for paper.  Then I eat my rainy day cupcake to cheer me up.

The Rain Coat

My bright blue rain coat is sitting on my dresser.  It's always been there for me, on all those rainy days.  It's always protected me from the snow, sleet, and rain.  It made sure that the soaking mist never got to me.  It was loyal to me, but it has a big gaping tear now.  Mom is telling me to throw it out.  I look at her, and then I look at the rain coat.

I keep my bright blue raincoat.
