This poem is a treat to read and I can see how you love plants and nature so much. I felt I was really there with you because wonderful descriptive writing and the importance of rain is so rightly featured. 10 love Karin
Wisdom raining down in the form of Ernestines words, , excellent This verse stood out and touched my heart the most, , not sure why, , just so moving Deep rich colours now adorn the scene, and dull grey dust is quickly swept away.

A beautiful rainy scene you have created here Ernestine with such lovely use of imagery. Wonderful poem. Love, Andrew xx
What a lovely tribute to the rain - - the dark skies bring the needed release - - a warm verse Ernestine - and thank you from Fay....
I like how you've written a positive poem on the merits of rain. It's not the usual view taken in the UK! Well done.
