Riding in the Rain
Riding in the rain’s alright -
in fact, it can be quite fine.
Tiny blue bugs take cover;
the air ‘round my face is mine.
Stella Castella
I think that it’s so nice to make up a little poem while I’m doing something like riding my bike. A subject usually suggests itself. In this case - while I was walking to the garage to get my bicycle, I had to go through a cloud of (most likely) smoky-winged ash aphids (Prociphilus Americanus). I almost decided not to ride, but then – good news, it started to rain!
