I feel it in my bones hours before the first drop when the sky floods gray and heavy, my knees scream my back aches and my hair becomes a web of straw clinging to my head…my thought process grows sluggish…and I think the very best I can manage is a nap, a very long nap in fact wake me up come spring when the rain is sweet and cool not this bone-chilling deluge that drenches fallen leaves grinding them into loam tree limbs overhead stripped bare, unable to shade the carnage below oh that it would snow, this season in between has lost its charm the letting go, the letting go… to death…I feel it in my bones
Oh, Kat, I get this. Knees screaming, aching back, bone-chilling rain – That almost describes how I felt yesterday. It was so dark, chilling and pouring rain. Sometimes I love watching and listening to the rain but yesterday was hard. Today it’s sunny and it makes me feel so much brighter! Thanks for always writing such heartfelt poetry. Blessings to you!
Thanks Sadje. I’m dealing with some mobility issues…so it takes me longer to get things done…leaving less time for writing. But I jump in when I can. Hope you are doing well!
So it is easier for you to find all the parts/chapters of my ongoing fiction series, I created a new page that lists all the links. You can check it out HERE!

My mum always said she could feel it in her bones when rain was coming… I used to laugh. Sadly I believe her now. 💜💜
