Just watching it rain. No longer questioning why the raindrops are
clear and yet they turn the grass green.
Not even considering from how high up the drops have fallen but simply
watching. There was a time when I would
contemplate the change in volume. The
harder it rained the louder it would get.
That kind of made sense, but for today, I’m just looking out at the
water falling from the sky.
Presently nobody is standing
outside looking back at me. There are no
people in my yard. So why is it, if I go
into my Livingroom and watch the same rainstorm on television, I’ll see a
weather person standing out in it. Why
do they feel compelled to act like it is something new? Are they really that stupid? Do they think their ratings will improve if
they make it look more dramatic? (Zoom in on that puddle)
I’ve heard it said that turkeys sometimes
look up when it is raining and in doing so, some drown. I’m thinking the application for weatherperson
should ask right up front, Are you smarter than a turkey?
