(31 in 31 - #3) Rainy Lullaby


I heard the rain singing to me last night.
I felt my shoulders drop a foot, and my heart sighed in joy.
My entire body softened and took a full breath.

I do not hear a sad song when the rain starts to fall.
The rain sings of slowing down,
relaxing,
breathing deeply
and moving gently.
No need to rush or hurry,
Take the time to savor this moment.

The rain provides a lovely backdrop
for activities centered in the Slow,
like reading,
meditating,
and sleeping.

I fell asleep last night listening to the song of the rain.
It is the lullaby for my wild child within.
