Rain pouring down...
roads & fields saturated overnight
making driving difficult
with deep, wide "rivers"
along roadsides...
but...
the most beautiful colours
of leaves just breaking through
against dark oak tree trunks
 |
| Magnificent Magnolias |
cat basking in favorite place across studio threshold,
at last the pool of water which flooded
through the skylight
has dried out
...joyful birdsong...
sudden thunder & lightning,
huge raindrops so loud
the cat hides in a corner
and mews at me,
as though
its all my fault
as large hailstones
pelt down noisily
bouncing right inside the doorway...
just as suddenly giving way
to deep blue sky
glorious sunshine
lighting up the magnolia tree next door...
 |
| Magnolias : Blue Dream |
reminding me of paintings
from this time last year,
when the magnolia blossom
basked in warm sunshine,
suspended in stillness
rather than suffering
from this year's gales.
