The rain garden

~ The Rain Garden ~

'Rain on the green grass And rain on the tree

And rain on the housetop But not upon me .'

-from Rain by Bethany Roberts

I simply love the rainy season for its cool showers

n lovely drenched greens. While my daughter looks

out of the window to all those pretty flowers

in the garden,I try to light up the dreary

rainy days and her little plate

with some fresh edible ones..
