Poetry: Puddles

by Geraldine Moorkens Byrne

Created on: April 09, 2009   Last Updated: April 15, 2009

In Dublin streets, the gutters are rivers.

Dark skies and slate grey roofs

walking hand in hand past city parks,

umbrellas useless in the wind.

We're already wet, he says, smiling.

This is his excuse, to grab my arm and roaring,

make a lurching charge.

Too late to stop, too full of laughter;

splashing, flailing, stomping after.

Love makes children of us all.
