Its raining...its pouring...

...the old man is snoring... It was getting hotter by the day..summer heat was on...and then almost out of nowhere...we are blessed with showers...showers of cool breeze...showers of..green leaves all bathed clean...showers...of the lovely smell of wet mud...

You watch the water pouring..and turning every small thing it touches into a new..fresh..being...It almost feels like a new fresh start... The wind blows in your face..and your strive to keep your hair tied...through the gaps you admire the beauty that the showers leave behind...through the gaps you are transported to a time before this moment...
