At the risk of sounding redundant , I will say again . . .it is raining at the rabbit patch. I am sure some record has been broken in the meteorology department, but how would I know, as cable does not work in the rain here?

It was late in the evening when I drove up to the rabbit patch, yesterday. The sun looked like a tangerine as it sunk behind the trees, blackened by its' light.

Rain continues to fall and there is "water, water everywhere". The streets are flooded on the corner by Jennys' house, so much that folks now resort to driving down the quiet lane, where the lilies grow.

On Saturday, I woke to the sound of a friendly rain. I love to wake on a silver morning with a gentle rain falling, especially, if I have no further obligation, than to listen to the watery song.

Every month comes bearing their own unique gifts to the season. I thought of that, this morning, at the "early service", for I found myself having a sense of dread, to open the back door.
