the rain

the rain

I don’t mind the rain
the sound of each droplet 
tapping the ground 
is comforting, the scent
of nearby lakes heavy in the air
fish and fauna, fill me 
with delicious melancholy 
I don’t mind the rain 
even as the sky dims
a pale gray, the ground’s 
verdant glow, earthy and pungent
sparks something deep in my core
connecting me to life’s force
ancient, eternal…
how could I ever mind the rain
cool, damp, messy, lingering, fragrant
some of my favorite things are these

No sound of each droplet for us today. We had torrential rain after strong and blustery winds. not a day for venturing far!

  Those raindrops eventually morphed into ice crystals as the wind picked up and temperatures dropped. Also a day here where I was glad to be warm inside! 😊
