Rain!


It has hardly rained here for the past month or so. Right now we have rain - glorious rain! Marley asked if she could stand in it. what could I say? Stand in it, run in it, dance in it - I would!

I thought of a poem that fit the moment:

April Rain Song

Let the rain kiss you
Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops
Let the rain sing you a lullaby
The rain makes still pools on the sidewalk
The rain makes running pools in the gutter
The rain plays a little sleep song on our roof at night
And I love the rain.

~Langston Hughes
