Welcoming the Rain

Rain makes for a damn good song.

We finally got some badly-needed wet stuff the other night – even with this questionable spring, we are somehow already dry as a bone. The rain arrived at night, which is best for everyone and everything. Good sleeping weather, good rejuvenating moment for the garden and lawn, good way of getting the precipitation out of the way in the hopes of a sunnier day.

When I woke the next morning, the garden felt refreshed. Drops still stuck to some of the plants, though they would burn off quickly enough. The sedum seen here (my new favorite foliage plant with its gray leaves with hints of burgundy) held onto its wet carriage. Rain storms don’t always stick around, even when you need the rain. Here are a few rain songs to help us make our peace with the gray days as they come.
