I hear the drone of
the drumming rain
and in the distance the
rumble of thunder
The music of the heaven's
sweet refrain
Bringing pleasent thoughts
that make me wander
Back to the times when I
was young
Listening with joy to
the song it sung

My dad's place has a tin roof and there was something so comforting about falling asleep to the sound of rain's drumming. *S* Now he has a walnut tree close enough to drop its branches and nuts... sounds like we're being bombed! LOL

I like this very much, paladin. *S*

This was so memory producing of my grandparents home when I was a child. Although they did not have a tin roof, I doubt there was any insulation and to this day I can hear the sound of rain on the roof. I just loved it.

Thank you for bringing to the forefront a wonderful childhood memory.
Hugs, Marti

May love and light always shine upon you!

I have never heard rain on a tin roof.  But I would bet it would do just that.  ~smiling~  A beautiful picture you paint.
