Rain Whispers

Rain Whispers Tender and fragrant the tiny drops of rain feel feather soft as they sprinkle my upturned face the roar of the tide, somehow dimmed as the rain on the beach whispers Walking through the mists of an early morning fog delicate wisps of icy tendrils lace between my ankles the sand gives way to my footsteps the ocean washes them away all thoughts wash out to sea feeling small, peaceful...free tender and fragrant the tiny drops feel feather soft as they sprinkle my upturned face... and the rain.....whispers

What a breezy little tidbit. Love it. what part of the rockies were you talking about? I grew up in Denver. Am I close or are you on the coast? Trudy....I'm crazy about that name. Love, daver...p.s. Don't worry - I'm 80 years old, quite harmless.

Gorgeous imagery and exquisite phrasing... such an atmosphere you've created! I love it when the rain whispers. I was on the beach once in the early morning. I was shrouded in fog, and the moisture in the air covered my face... Well done Trudy! Best wishes, Keith (PS I'm gonna be cheeky and ask you to look at 'Nightscapes;' ...it's a tribute to T.S. Eliot and I'd like your opinion.) Thanks!!

Such beautiful imagery is displayed here in your writing. The words you write carry the reader away on the waves of passion and tenderness of your soul. Great write. Smiles from Lolita

This is lovely, Trudy. I got lost on that beach while I was reading. The title is perfect. Love, Robin

An absolute beautiful write Trudy. I love it when it rains...it seems to make me more at peace in today's frantic world. And the way you describe it, I can feel it even more. Thanks for sharing such a beautiful write.

Trudy, isn't it amazing how the sea makes us feel so small, and the rain becomes part of us. Whispering rain is such a nice way to describe the gentle patter of nature's gift. Love this work! Carolyn
