Me too, Deb! These are truly life's simple miracles on display everyday from the heart of our creator! This poem brought my heart such joy remembering similar experiences. We just had a rainstorm yesterday. It was wonderful to wake up to the sound of the rain! Blessings of the season to you! Thank you for this poem.
