Front Porch Moments in the Rain

~~~~~~

Thunder in the distance mid-morning. Rain came down soaking the parched red clay earth, filling the fountain and birdbaths. Small rivulets ran down the driveway, the songbirds went into hiding in the shrubbery. Grabbed a jacket and my camera, filled my coffee mug. Sat on the front porch watching the rain fall and taking a few pictures.

Porch crystal candolier outlined against the neighbor's brick chimney and the still bare trees.

Shhhh! A good day for porch napping as the soft rain fell.

Rain, rain don't go away, stay with us another day.

We are in a severe drought and need every drop we can get!
