Hello sweet darlings...I hope your week is faring well. Some weeks ago, I ventured for a walk by the river. A gentle breeze was blowing, wrapping the body in a cool blanket, clouds like big fluffy pillows floated ever so gently over head, you could hear the sweet melodies of birds singing out to each other and passersby down below. Seagulls playing games of catching shells hoping to find tasty treats inside. Mother Nature playing her part in all walks of life. All was going so well until, the mood changed, clouds started to fall, engulfing the hills underneath them, waves began rising and crashing in great crescendo slapping over the railings and pouring onto the pavement. Hurried faces rushed to take cover in their cars and near buildings close by. We waited to see...it stops...hooray.....but Mother Nature has different plans...the down pour of hale stones quickly begins, hitting the ground like a hundred marbles in a children's game. We race to hide, laughing at the spectacle of it all. Watching it fall to cover the ground like white paint splattering on dark canvas. Birds lost in a graceless flight trying to take cover, lost to the strength of the winds. Minutes upon minutes pass by and slowly like the turn of a page, the clouds lift, leaving the space once invaded. Beautiful rays of sun dance together with rain drops to cascade in rainbows of colour into the atmosphere like a symphony of triumph. I smile happily towards the bright light as it warms my face and dries any trace of the rain that once was....'Mother Nature at her best' I laugh saying....and hurry home before she changes her mind again ;D
Have a happy Wednesday petals!!
Love loves
