Rain is Falling

Dripping from abundant blooms the rain carries an infusion of lilac down into the dark welcoming earth.
A tiny bird waits, taking shelter among glossy green leaves. The sky as white as paper.

A lovely image, Susannah.

It just so happens it's pouring with rain here today too. (what's new lol)

Enjoy your day. :-)

I love how you described the lilacs...yes, here too..bending plants..heavy with rain..touching the earth...How are you?

Hi Suz,

it seems to be raining all over! The garden welcomes it though.

I am well, though feeling a little quiet of late, I go through phases - like the moon. :-)

I hope all is well with you.
Love to you x

Your words have a haiku quality...The constellation of a moment- lilac, earth, rain, bird, leaf, sky. Each moment is precious and irreproducible, to be cherished but not clung to. I love the way you juxtapose the quote with the lush, stark beauty of the moment. Thank you Susannah for giving a moment of quietness and beauty to my day.
