How Coloradans Cope with Several Days of Rain

Not well.
Yes, we appreciate it,
It's been so dry.
We get glum, itching to be outside,
ride to work, walk up to music lessons.
Yes, umbrellas exist, but feet get
wet, it's damp, we're soft here,
not used to it, unlike the New
Englanders, the British,
the New Zealanders and Patagonians.
We pour wine early, even the car
grumbles.
It's been more than one brief
gully washer in the afternoon, it's
grey and wet.
We Coloradans don't do well
with all this.
Where is our sunshine.
