Summer Rain
As I lay in bed nursing my newborn I am listening to the soothing sound of a Summer thunderstorm. I have always loved the rain in the Summertime. It can feel so refreshing. The un-earthly light that is specific just to these types of storms is beautiful. The sound of the low grumblings getting closer and closer and louder , and then receding into the distance on top of the sound of the pouring raindrops. The occasional flash of lightening and as soon as it came it is gone again. If you’re lucky enough you might get your rainbow at the end of the storm.
I am reminded of my childhood, either sitting on the porch of my Father’s apartment or in my grandparents home in Cherry Valley lazily watching storms come and go. Feeling the awe and respect of the power of mother nature.
