The sound of Rain
Oh the thrill of drops
Waiting for it
It came while I was looking elsewhere
It woke me up from a sound sleep
The cats sat in the window and listened
As it danced on the driveway
Fast now
The window is open due to the Muggy Ness
I can hear the dance
Oh how I did my own dance when I knew it was here
We've had a long hot July and now that it's August
It seemed like it would be clouds and muggy
The muggies will go away ... I hope
At least I don't have to water my plants
The Rain ... it has arrived !!!

It is fairly overcast this morning and I hope we get some needed rain.
Good hope you get a really nice rain. We got rain last weekend and the humidity isn't as bad since. I was saying the same thing, no watering the plants;)

It's been raining all night ... drip drip drip
I am so envious of everyone reporting rain!
Lovely poem!
That was one of the best weather reports we ever read!!! WTG!!! Hope the Muggies go away soon (here too)
The rain has stopped for now. Birds are singing away ... so, they liked it too !!!
As a cat might say, "Rain is bad!"
The air has been cleaned! Hooray!!! And it will be back in the 80s by next week. It has been such a lovely summer, hasn't it?
Yes, actually it's been nice. Didn't like the 102 weather but add an ac and I'd be fine with it.
Oh, and a pool ...
It was raining all day yesterday over here so that it isn't too hot like it was.
Nice poem, JC!
Keep the rain! we have had our fair share here in New England. We are finally going to experience summertime weather, 90 degrees later in the week. YIPEE!!!!
It rained all night long .. woke up around 4 am to a torrential loudness ... it's sunny now though. We sure needed it ... it even smells better outside.
Hope all the plants got a good drenching. Love the smell of rain in the summer - so refreshing.
We Ballicai love your poem about the rain! We've been getting quite a bit of rain here in TN. It's been furry good for Momma and Daddy's garden!

That reads like a lovely song. We have lots of the muggies here, too. But no rain. Mom's young dogwood has the droopies.
Rain in good. We could use some around here.
That was lovely. We could use some rain down here in Texas...and some cool weather too. Except then we kitties wouldn't get to go outside 'cuz it'd be too wet (according to The Mommy). *sigh*
Hey, thanks so much for stopping by our bloggie and sharing your good thoughts for our Bugsy on his surgery today, as you know all went well and he'll be home tomorrow. We appreciate your thoughtfulness very much!
Big purrs and hugs,
The Kitty Krew and The Mommy
Rain is what keeps Long Island so green. We all love the rain, and this summer we've had a lot to love! My garden and yours probably, has grown out of control, but I am happy that nature errs on that side, and the plants and animals love it.
