A Rainy Good Morning!

It's getting late on a lovely morning. Lovely, that is, if you like a gentle rain with occasional thunder, the window open just a bit so that you can hear it all and see the grass, flowers and trees enthusiastically respond to its arrival.

I love this time of year. I refuse to allow the higher pollen counts to dampen my mood, especially when I and so many others desperately need something positive to balance out the human-caused calamities that predominate the TV, radio, newspapers and internet.

At least for a few moments, I say, let's ignore the seamier aspects of civilization and embrace nature.
