Hot days await the cooling rains. The sound of pelting raindrops on the rooftop. Season of smoky clouds and flooded streets. We are still waiting for the rain though the Met Office has confirmed the season.
People of long time days didn't look to the Met Office. Every avid Christian marked the Season of Rains with the planting of pigeon peas and corn at Corpus Christi holiday.
today just a tease
raindrops against the windows -

The Ixora flowers are beautiful in pink -- I see them here in the Florida sub-tropics, but only in orange and yellow colors. I hope you are safe from storms and get just enough rain.
