Fickle Weather

This morning, when I awoke The rain was thundering down. So hard, so fast, Sounding like drums on the roof. Then... it stopped. Now the sun is brightly beaming down. The wet leaves, still dripping Have a glorious shine to them. Everything looks so bright, Fresh. Through the trees I see the clear blue sky. Soft white clouds Where only an hour before A dark rain cloud Covered everything. Fickle weather.

Very vivid description of a rainy morning, Francine. On such days (today was one of them), I prefer to go back to bed if possible and wait for that "clear blue sky." Love, Carolyn
