I lay down to nap and fell asleep and thunder woke me up and I thought maybe it was someone in the house or under the house, rattling pipes and pine wood until I realized that no, it was thunder and then I got up even though I'd barely slept and the rain started coming down and the sun was shining in such a way through the trees that it looked like silver pouring off the tin roof and down into the elephant ears and aren't I glad I didn't sleep through that?

There was a small earthquake off shore the night before last after my son and his family had left and I was alone in the house. I thought someone was upstairs. But intuition told me to check the seismological website.
ReplyDeleteNo payoff of rain like silver. Just my beating heart. Which is a payoff afterall, for sure.
Is it weird that between reading about your rain and Denise's earthquake I am all aflutter over what a magical place this planet is? I must be high.
ReplyDeleteDenise- Holy shit! I don't "do" earthquakes. I am in awe of those of you who do...
ReplyDeleteStephanie- Nope. It IS magical. You're completely right.
ReplyDeleteLucky you woke up to see the silver. It's so nice to be in the right place at the right time and have a camera at hand... Love your silver tangles! A natural wind chime.
ReplyDeleteI like the rain!
ReplyDeleteSyd- We have been in drought for so long that we can never not like the rain.
