weather: summer storm (or shower?)
Jul. 7th, 2009 01:45 pmI want to say that rain is pearling down the window pane but that is so corny although the colour of the rain and its shiny translucence is a little pearl-like, but more like pearl-in-the-shell not the hard white ball on my gold ring. There is a drumming sound on roof and other horizontal surfaces. I can barely see the trees through the fog of rain but they seem to be bending from left to right in a gale. The sky is filled with clouds in different shades of grey. The rain is hitting really hard when it hits.
Now it's subsiding a little already. It is summer. There is no lightning (as there was yesterday). The rain is rather wet. It's cosy to be inside but yesterday I ran across the grass to take in the outdoor tablecloth and dishes and because I was wearing summer sandals, my toes got wet and slithered around uncomfortably on top of my soles.
Ah. Stopped already. What do they call this? A summer shower? The noise is gone. I can hear birds.
And the hammering of the carpet fitters in the hall.
