A New Love Affair

I have been swept off my feet. I can't eat, sleep, think. It's entirely one-sided, sadly. I can't take my eyes off them and all they want to do is grow and flower.

I have never seen a finer, softer rain than this morning. At times, the swirling mist of drops didn't even seem to reach the ground. With a bit of guilt*- because I know most people prefer sunshine and more heat, I went about my merry way outside, pulling weeds and soaking the moist air up into my nostrils and through my skin.

Then I learned of the earthquake in Italy and the death of another BeeGee, which pretty much brought floaty, happy me back down to earth. Must stop watching the news, it's always a bummer.

*not that much guilt, actually
