Rain Down

It has been raining for days but it hasn’t stopped me from gardening. I just planted a couple of campanulas and finished mulching my bed. I don’t mind the rain at all, I am glad it’s raining – I don’t have to water the plants for several days and gives me relief from pollen allergy. It also makes me think of this song:

If you feel downhearted cheer up, cheer up
Remember to sing and to smile
You know that the rainbow will follow the rain
So cheer up, cheer up, cheer up, cheer up!

I learned it from elementary school and never left my mind since. I don’t remember the title or the composer but I remember the lyrics. I thought it was a great song for rainy days. Happy rainy days!

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.

~Rabindranath Tagore
