After the rain
What is the best way to spend a rainy afternoon?
Looking out a window.
Jumping in puddles.
Staying warm.
Listening to drumming on the roof.
Depends on where I've been. I love storms and fury but I prefer to watch them from a safe place. I grew up with cold rain-at-a-slant; I prefer snow. In Montana it seldom 'rains'. Time to jump in puddles. The downpours in Costa Rica drum on tin roofs. Amazing!
With rain comes sound, sight, touch, and after ... a fresh earthy smell ... petrichor.
If it's going to rain all afternoon then I'd rather be inside looking at a garden than in it working. A book, a cat in my lap, coffee (always), a wee bit of warmth if it's chilly?
We don't have much rain here = not an intense green.
Not like a Kansas prairie when it rains after the burn = a hurtin'-eye green.
