We have been having the strangest weather here lately! Yesterday, it hailed so hard that it left the dirt in my backyard bumpy. It was a little bit terrifying. One moment I'm enjoying the wonderful afternoon breeze and suddenly I'm being pelted with ice cubes the size of lima beans! And then on Monday, I was at my friend Kayt's house and it started MONSOONING!! Her chickens were going nuts. :) I'm beginning to think that we no longer live in a desert. Anyways, in honor of crazy Mother Nature, I dug out a poem that I wrote a while back for your midnight enjoyment. Hope you like it!
Spring
The heavy clouds gobble up the scant rays of sunshine,
Only letting through their own wet minions.
No matter how much of a fight that sunshine puts up,
No matter how many times it tries to convince the clouds that they'll finally lose,
The clouds still win.
Finally accepting the fact that the clouds have won.
Only then, is that sunshine able to see the sky in its entirety.
Only then, are those little rays of sunshine able to see
That there is more to the sky than just those clouds.
Have a wonderful birthday/wedding/anniversary/cultural holiday/regular normal day!!!
(Wanted to include all of the many different things you could be celebrating today)
