Whispering Rain

the soft summer rain whispers gently through the trees it lulls me to sleep with it's relaxing rustle and the scent of fresh blossoms

thanks, Francine, i often feel that way when seeing contest results of differing judges. I will see favorites of mine that are way low on a judge's list or I will see ones that never made it on the list at all and find myself amazed by that. I just read a poet here who entered in someone's contest and did not place at all and I absolutely loved his story poem!

Yes, it is beautiful, can feel it on my skin; the trouble is there has been none for over a month. Send some here Francine!

This reminds me of the hit song of the sixties "Summer Rain" by Johnny Rivers. Good writing Francine.
