...from the falling rain...

summer night in the garden
green fresh from the falling rain
quiet winds
a stillness
an embracing warmth
the gentle quiver is felt
green in its glory of Being.

HI ROSEMARIE-
the misty breeze was balmy yet soothing. It carried with it the scent of freshly blossomed flowers scattered in the garden - opened to the rain and delighting us with color and aroma. Oh yes, rain in the garden.
Love Gail
peace.....
