Quadrille Quiet
Rain in torrents
Daylight dim
No birdsongs sent
Given from Him

Rain and floods
 Reading time
At home or at odds
quiet as a mime

TV lady talks
Of moisture in the air
Under umbrella walk
All is fair    

And  loud rain in torrents

    I love the contrast between the torrential rain and the quiet reading time, Gillena! The sound of rain on an umbrella is delightful.

    Gillena, I really like how “quiet as a mime” echoes the hush you’ve built around the storm. Feels like a rainy day wrapped in reflection.

    Much love,
