I surrendered...





... to the rain that dominated the day.

it gave my mind permission, to wander, drift & stray

it gave my imagination time to dream, create & play

it allowed my body to obey my bed's call to gather books & lay

it called to me & and asked that I listen to its patter

to close my eyes & appreciate the sound of wet birds' chatter

So I surrendered to the rain and let it calm me down

to all the beauty that it is, beauty, all around.

    Add a plate of buttered toast, and a cup of tea to the books, and I'm with you there.
