The Gentle Touch of the Rain

It was quite cloudy this morning and around noon, the gentle pitter-patter of the raindrops falling on the wet grass has  that soothing effect  on my soul.  This is kind of different from the past deluge and downpour we have experienced several days ago. It’s more like a teasing kiss of nature, making the leaves of the plants greener and so fresh.  How I wish I could stay for a while in the garden and make a quick macro shot of the sparse flowers growing there now.   For the past month or so, I haven’t visited it, much less weed out the growing unwanted grass lodged in between the brown pots of various plants and my dwarf sansevierias.   Maybe in a few weeks,I’ll be able to do some weeding and tend to my neglected garden plants.

The gentle touch of the rain!  It makes  me long for those days when life was so simple, when a few drops of sudden rainfall is a welcome sight to behold. It’s a welcome respite from the heat and something that makes my day complete.
