Chilly spring raindrops are pinging the windows. Looking out, I see that the grass around the muddy patches is violently green. If the sun were to suddenly shine, the vibrancy of the brilliant, wet lawn would certainly hurt one's eyes. The muddy patches are usually called "flower beds." No blooms yet, but the promise is there in little emerald shoots. A dozen tiny birds peck away in the mud, ignoring the rain.
I'm not an outdoorsy type, and I am tired of cold and rain... but those birds and flower buds make me smile.
we are done with the rain here too....enough already...we have had so many rainy days in a row that i am fearful the outdoors will be mobbed when the first sunny day rolls around!
