Rare lluvia día,
I made a taza of té,
With leche and jengibre.
I sat on the cama
With a peaceful libro,
Watched the wet jardín.
Gorrión on the pared,
Oscuras nubes
Streaking the cielo.
What an agradable way
To acknowledge the clima.
Translation:
A rare rainy day, I made a cup of tea with milk and ginger.
I sat on the bed with a peaceful book, watching the wet garden.
A sparrow on the wall, dark clouds streaking the sky.
What a pleasant way to embrace the weather.
