Raindrops
Softly and gently the rain drops are
falling.
The air is alive with the sound
The drops hit the brown earth in a living
crescendo
wet circles all over the ground.
The frogs start to sing in their static
refrain
the joy in their song is so clear.
It’s been dry for so long that natures
rejoicing
for now the wet season is here.

Re: Raindrops
That is really lovely Bob - a little different from your usual writes with a softer gentler feel to it. I like it a lot.

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.

Lovely Bob - simple yet so descriptive. Brings back so many memories to me of the wet season arriving in the Territory x

Re: Raindrops
I really do not know where it came from
The first line just popped into my head and the rest just flowed.
Don't you lot think I'm going soft or anything.
Thanks for the kind comments
