Rain reflections...



How beautiful is the rain
After the dust and the heat
In the broad and fiery street
In the narrow lane
How beautiful is the rain!   
.... Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

We've had a fair bit of rain this winter, continuing into spring.. long may it fall :) Happy weekend, take care and stay safe...

  21. I couldn't agree more! It's a wonderful thing especially in places where the sun shines almost every day.

  22. Oh, Grace, I know chances aren´t big but I sososo hope for rain in Dec/Jan whilst we´re under the tinned roof of the cabin!
    I so miss the sound, having had my room in my parent´s home under the roof, now living ground floor.
