rainy days

thinking tonight about the rain
and how i love it oh so much.

yesterday
there were three little sparrows
laughing and flirting with the rain
while hiding on a ledge
under the eaves of a neighbor's roof.
so happy and content they were,
no doubt daring each other to play games
but huddling when it suddenly poured again
twittering and chirping,
singing and smiling.

one of my favorite things to do
on days such as these
is pour a steaming cup of tea or coffee
crawl under a warm blanket
let pandora run (love the soft violins)
and travel into a good book--
as if i was having tea with an old friend.

it's during these days
i hear so many complaints about the weather
so many "i-wish-i-had-it-my-way"s

but me
well,

i love that rain.
