Nighttime Rain
A gentle rain sounds best when it waits until the end of the day to fall. It washes away the day's rough spots and readies the mind for sleep. It is not like the strong, angry wailing of an obstinate toddler, but rather like a soft flow of tears brought on by a sad movie. It is cleansing, soothing, cathartic even. It lends a sense of peacefulness along with the reassurance that everything will look better tomorrow with a fresh mist of raindrops sprinkled over it all.

Beautiful image. Another benefit - hopefully we're all inside and dry when the rain falls at night.
ReplyDeleteYes, being able to hear the rain from inside the house is a plus.
