slumber comes easily amid lethargic drops of rain even as I try to fight it off I am reduced to a peaceful frame of mind as huge, lazy raindrops fall from the sky peace . . . that utopia man seeks until at last it is his usually when old age appears boredom soon settles inside and he has much too much time to think and query about a life squandered ©July 8, 2014 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ Tell the truth, but tell it slant.--Emily Dickimsom ~*~ [This message has been edited by JerryPat2 (07-21-2014 08:45 AM).] |

Old age forces us to think whether we want to or not and I'm sure we can all relate. Ida |

Ah, a good rain storm is one of the few things in life that will totally relax me. As you say, it's over way too quickly usually. Life isn't squandered if you're taking time to enjoy the little things, like a good rain. Michael |

Such rain is like a lullaby, giving me the sweetest rest! And having it interrupted by my alarm clock is truly a sin. LOL Loved this! |
