Rain, Rain, Go Away!

Dear Rain,

Thank you for watering my potatoes and onions and lettuce for me. It has been really nice not to have to worry about remembering to give my little babies a drink. However, you have made the days terribly damp and dreary; cold and gray.

I have a favor to ask, Rain. Please let me get a few days of warm, sunshiny weather in this next week. I need to plant strawberries and more lettuce, and squash, and tomatoes and, well, just a lot of stuff! The longer you stay around, the longer I have to wait to plant.

Please don't take this as a plea for you to stay away indefinitely; my plants and I need you. Please just give us a little break!

Thanks,
Me
