Lifeforce

Verdant hills distant, Thirst quenched by skies vigor force- Life begins anew. 5th place in Rick's "Rain as a gift" contest. *What I see every spring as I look at the horizon of hills and pastures, rain is a blessing for those who keep horses and farms. Green everywhere. An incredible sight, life giving for all of nature and her creatures.

It's raining here today in Washington State. We have a reputation of always having rain but actually in summers we get less than New York city. We welcome it. Good luck in the contest. Love, Joyce
