My Favorite Coat

Deb Talan

my favorite coat
hangs in the hallway
waiting like a good friend
to keep me warm

i love my coat
its sturdy, and versatile
solving all my problems
nirvana in the rain

and its raining
and raining
been raining for weeks now
crying a torrent
and the rain is washing us clean
is washing us clean
me and my coat

in my coat i am a superhero
traveling through space and time
impervious to pain

while its raining
and raining...
been raining for weeks now
crying a torrent
and the rain is washing us clean,
is washing us clean

me and my coat
we are a symphony
blanketing the world outside
an oasis in the storm
an oasis in the storm

well its raining
and raining
been raining for weeks now
crying a torrent
and the rain is washing us clean
is washing us clean
and the rain is washing us clean
is washing us clean

me and my coat
