Rain!

It seems to rain so easily during the past few weeks – usually in the late afternoon or evening.

It’s raining lightly as I enter this.

On many evenings – long before dusk – the skies became dark.

Heavy rain clouds rolled in – sometimes with a threat of high winds or even a tornado.

This photo was taken two nights after the first photo – even though they look similar.

On Friday night we had heavy rain – some areas just a few miles east of us got more than four inches

 Raindrops are such funny things.
They haven’t feet or haven’t wings.

Yet they sail through the air,
With the greatest of ease,

And dance on the street,
Wherever they please.

Raindrops

rain
drops
drip
down
all
day
long.

drip down,
slip down,
splashing out their song.
thunder-crashing
splishing
splashing,
slipping,
dripping,
raining down
their rainy
raindrop
song.

– Helen H. Moore (1921-2005).

The rain was so heavy it looked like a waterfall coming down between these trees.
