Take a Shower When in the Rain (poem)

It seems that with my every effort to push forward and upward, I feel these opposing forces trying to defeat me.

I am trying as hard as I can to get back on track, but right when the clouds seem to be finally thinning out, and I think I can see a glimpse of the sun, rain clouds move in and I’m stuck without an umbrella.

But luckily enough, after a few moments, my attitude changes and overcomes… 
          And I just decide to use what I have….

                                     
                               This Rain... 

And just take a shower...
