I do enjoy the Spring rains.

Listen to the sound the rain makes, As it drums out it's own special tune; Tapping a mystic melody, On windows and roof tops and dunes. Lulling the weary traveler, And soothing the cares of the day; Calming the troubled spirit, And chasing my blues away. Pattering 'gainst my window, It chases away my frown, As with warm cup of tea and a blanket, I hurry to get settled down. Outside the rain patters merrily, Inviting me come out and play. Inside I'm cozy and comfy, I'll go out some other day. For now I'll enjoy the music, On rooftop and window panes. All comfy and warm I'll sit her and watch, As raindrops play little games. Scurrying 'cross my window, And making small rivers and streams, As children in bright colored raincoats, Chase paper boats through my dreams.

This is such a well written description of rain, Judy. I love the music of rainfall, or the scent of fresh washed earth, or the refreshing shower on a hot day. +7 +Fav. // Barry.
