Enjoying The Rain

Allowing the mind to wander freely

Sitting at the window watching the clouds cry Tears weaving their way in the breeze gliding down the glass strumming a lullaby on the rooftop–a calming lilting sound as it whispers in the wind There is no sadness Everything is serene A small opening in the window lets in the smell of a freshly baked earth made with love like our grandmothers did Wonderful memories that should be cherished Water trickles down the soil enriching its roots while the trees are washed, cleansed, and renewed At that moment the mind wanders freely Every muscle relaxes Inhaling and exhaling Counting each breath Letting it out slowly There’s no plan but to sit here and listen to the delicate, swollen droplets of rain until it becomes just a mist The perfect moment to get a natural face mist Pores no longer dehydrated but nourished Champagne bubbles against the skin To do nothing but enjoy the rain is a favorite pastime To appreciate the little things that life has to offer A time to let the mind be free
