It has rained 18 of the past 24 days
Vegas - monsoon season
But holy holly bells....
love the dampness
and lower temps
but dang it all
my hair
a giant frizzy ball
enough!
Sitting in my comfy chair,
burning my volcano candle,
listening to pitter patter
on the bushes just outside the window,
smelling the rain and
listening to an old favorite album
Cohen friends
do you know about this?
Give a listen anyway - and those of you
immune to LC...
Crank up the volume
stay with it until the end
for percussion
you can finger drum on the desk
stay with it until the end
for percussion
you can finger drum on the desk
close your eyes
listen to it rain
As a hearing impaired person, one of the sounds I miss the most is the quiet patter of rain....and the nuances of music.
ReplyDeleteI bet monsoon season in Vegas is a very welcome event.
Thank you for sharing, Z, I loved it!
ReplyDeleteI'm a weirdo...I never listen to music unless the husband is in the car....I drove 90 miles to work for 4 years and never turned the radio on once...I've never bought a record or CD in my life...yep, I'm a strange one!
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's because I have so much chatter goin' on in this fool head of mine, I wouldn't hear the music anyway.
Hi
ReplyDeleteLove this rendition, I've heard it by LC, Willie and Cash... love this song!
Send some of that rain this way, we are dry!
Blessings today

Now why do you get rain and we don't? So strange to think of it raining so much in Vegas. Just when I think I have it all figured out.... love that song and special treat to hear even if I haven't seen rain since Feb. Ann
ReplyDeleteOh this rain is really cool, but not when I have to drive to work in it! UGH! If I could stay home and bake stuff, I love the rain! But we are busy (because of the rain) Lots of fender benders for us vehicle appraisers! Not complaining as long as no one gets hurt! I did get to come home and make peach bread pudding, will put recipe on my blog if it tastes good! Stay dry my friend!
ReplyDeleteawesome, just what I needed, thanks Z
ReplyDeleteHi Suz...September is all about rain here also, although we are still enjoying temps in the high eighties, but it is calling for rain tomorrow...I can tell, my sinuses tell me so...I love it when it rains actually, everything outside looks so green and yummy, and it smells like moss and wood, love it...keep well, sweet thing, N.xo
ReplyDeleteno rain here in dusty dirty old town...
ReplyDeletelovely story as always...
