“Let the rain kiss you.” Langston Hughes
Conversations With Rain Sometimes I like to walk in you, to let you run down my back, but today the birds have shamed me as I sit observing you, winter's gift, through my window while wrens frolic in your drops as if it were the cream of summer, and I remonstrate with you, be a little less intense, take a break, so I can venture with you, so far you haven't heard my plea, and here I sit, immobile, waiting for you to abate.

I used to enjoy walking in a summer rain. (Not in a winter rain, though.)

I enjoy a walk in snowfall, but winter rain is too cold. (Strange, how that works.)

Yes, 2013 was the last time did walking in snow – Poland for New Years, wonderful.

I always wonder if birds tire of being wet, when rains continue for extended periods of time. At first glance it doesn’t seem to faze them one bit!

No, they seem to just accept the moment (a great quality).

They really do, once on a trail hike with ice on the tent no less, a bird flew in a perched on the travellers shelter gutter and dived in for a bath, I shuddered.
