rain!

It’s raining. After being oppressive and dull and depressing all day, it’s raining! Now the world is dark, the clouds are majestic, the thunder is LOUD, and I am hoping for lightning. And the earth smells so good, this crisp, cold wind is moving through the office and all the oppression of the day is washed away.

I want to go home, make tea and stand on the lawn with my face turned up to catch the raindrops..
