We have had a really wet, cold Spring so far here in our corner of the Pacific Northwest. It doesn’t feel like summer is officially starting in less than a week and it’s hard to believe my poor family in Arizona are having opposite weather with heat and summer wildfires. But secretly I am loving our weather this year! I know it’s causing issues with crops and most everyone else probably hates it, including my motorcycle loving husband, but I am a rain lover, so my soul is happy, happy, happy. 🙂
Oh, what a beautiful day!
So very wet and very grey.
I love the soothing, steady sound
Of rain falling quickly to the ground.
I love the freshness that fills the air.
That replaces my worries and silly cares.
I love the calmness all around.
The quiet of not many other sounds.
I love the promise of a brand-new start.
The happiness it brings my heart.
And with each gentle pitter patter
My soul refills for things that matter.
And so, I breathe the cool air in
Grateful for this day again.
