RAIN

WOKE UP THIS MORNING AND IT WAS RAINING OUTSIDE, AND THERE WAS A NIP OF COLD AIR.
I STARTED MY LITTLE FIREPLACE, PUT ON A POT OF COFFEE, AND JUST SETTLED BACK IN MY BIG OLD CHAIR, IT FELT SO GOOD. I LOVE LOOKING AT THE RAIN AND LISTENING TO THE SOUND OF THE PITTER PATTER OF THE DROPS HITTING THE WINDOW PANE. I REMEMBER AS A CHILD THE LITTLE POEMS AND SONGS THAT WE WOULD SING ABOUT THE RAIN...............

IT'S RAINING, IT'S POURING, THE OLD MAN IS SNORING.
HE BUMPED HIS HEAD, AND HE WENT TO BED, AND HE COULDN'T GET UP IN THE MORNING.

THEN LATE THIS AFTERNOON THE SUN CAME OUT, IT WAS NICE TO SEE THE SUN AGAIN.........BUT IT WAS SO NICE LOOKING AND LISTENING TO THE RAIN.
THE RAIN.....BY.....ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON
THE RAIN IS RAINING ALL AROUND, IT FALLS ON FIELD
AND TREE.
IT RAINS ON THE UMBRELLA HERE, AND ON THE SHIPS AT SEA.
THANKS FOR STOPPING BY........RIZZI

    My favorite song when I was about 12 was "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head". I have a little jewelry box that used to play the song but sadly it stopped working but still holds jewelry. Have a terrific Tuesday. :) Tammy

    Hi Aunt Riz, thanks for stopping by my latest post! I loved the story about the pork chops - Mom must have been mortified! Wished we lived a bit closer so I could join you for a cup of tea on a rainy day! Love, AM

    Such a pretty picture of the raindrops on the window. And the red tulips in the picture beside it. They shout out 'spring!'

    Your fireplace and coffee sound so cozy. I would love to join you for a cup:)
