It's raining!

Much as I like the warm sunshine and temperature we've had, I am glad to see the rain today. Nature around us needed it, I hope it's going to last long enough to make a difference. It will also, hopefully, wash the pollen out of the air and relieve the hayfever my daughter has suffered from in the past few weeks.




Rain Rain Rain

Rain Rain Rain,
Up above from the skies
Youu come,
As drops of joy
As drops of sorrow
As a shower of blessing from the heavens.


Rain Rain Rain,
Pitter patter pitter patter
on the window panes,
thunder and lightning fill up the skies
creating an orchestral symphony.

Rain Rain Rain,
With wind, sun and clouds,
seven colors you bring together
and joy in our hearts.

Rain Rain Rain
A miracle to a drought
A curse when in glut,
tiny silver crystals trickles from up above.
