Poem for a rainy Day

Raindrops

Gentle cooling drops

Rolling from benevolent clouds.

The sky a cosy blanket under which to cuddle.

Blooms exhausted from heat open their hearts

Their thirst quenched with soft moisture.

Leaves sending small brooklets down to their brothers and sisters.

Hot pavings extinguish their furnacesses.

Small wavelets on the lake reach up to welcome family.

A sparrow revels in the cooling shower.

The woman on the bench mingles her tears with the soft raindrops.

They dilute the salt, the sorrow.

They have a healing touch.

Sunday at the Gold Coast

What a beautiful Sunday here on the Gold Coast. Cool and windy but clear blue skyes. Had lunch at an Indian restaurant by the waterside just around the corner. Now I am working on drawing project. it's difficult but I'm getting there.  Not as difficult as my trip across the Himalayas. I like challenges.
Don't forget today is one more day to download the children's story THE LILAC QUEEN free of charge from amazon.
Just type in Puruto into the search option and you find all my books. have a lovely day.
