A rainy kind of beauty
It’s been a rainy summer —
Which means pretty pink petals
Blowing in the wind;
Roses glowing
With rain jewels;
And vivid splashes
Of sunny petals.
And after the rain,
Blossoms unfurl
In delicate rays of sun.

Love the Blooms, Lady Fi – Alas, the rain has flooded our world in the last few days. We’ve officially had over 7″ and expect 2 more today. People are using canoes and boats to get around what is normally dry land.

The drops look so refreshing. It has been a very uncharacteristically un-rainy summer season in my West Coast neighbourhood and the flowers and I sure have been missing it.

We are in the midst of the rain right now, which is a wonderful relief after the heat. It was so thick I knew it would be raining. Sadly most of my color is gone from the heat, except the grass. It seems to grown no matter what I do to it. Ha. Lovely yellow flower you have there.
I am well. Just finished my masters and I am about to head out on vacation with the family to Miami. We will be traveling through the Everglades a bit. A fun little adventure. It’s nice to know I am missed though.
Smiles.
