When The Rain Washes You Clean

It rained this weekend,
actually poured!
Got my coffee,
and went to the trail.

 
The trail looked dreary
and spooky,

 
with only one light
beaming in the distance.


Heart-shaped Autumn leaves,



and a family taking a stroll.


The pine trees dripped
with rain water,
and looked like Christmas trees.


I love the rain,
and as Stevie Nicks sings,
'when the rain washes you clean,
you'll know.'

  2. Sheri, I loved the pictures. It's good that you have some alone time with your coffee and can go somewhere pretty to relax. I need to start doing that before winter sets in. I need to go back and read the previous post. Bless you sweet girl, love, xoxo, Susie

  3. Wonderful photos. I'm seeing lots more wild turkeys this year. Sometimes you need your own day to just let your hair down and chill! Sounds ideal to me!

  8. Oh, yeah. I have been washed clean by the rain a couple of times in my life....when rain mingled with tears and cleansed sadness from my soul. Life is just an amazing journey, isn't it? Love your rain shots...You had me at Starbucks! lol xo Diana

  12. So many metaphors with rain.....all I know is that it poured here too yesterday, we too have TURKEYS, and for fall, well, our colors are pretty sensational this year. Lovely words dearest Sheri!

  15. Beautiful. Yes, our hearts know. xoxo

    Thank you, dear friend, for your kind words. I didn't even know the gallery had comments...and when it's within a post they can't be disabled. Was meant to be. :) The photo of the steps is one of my favorites too. I like the way the light seemed to spill on them. It was a sunken garden across from the church and it was not very well kept, but it sure had personality.

    Keep sharing those lovely trails. LOVE the sparkling pines.
    xoxo

  16. I love the rain too. However, we did not get as much as you did up your way. But we will take whatever we get.

    The pictures are beautiful. Have a very special week, it's going to get HOT down this way.

    Hugs,
    Mary

  17. This is a sweet post, it sounds like a poem that is captured in the camera lens. Nice work Sheri! I've read your previous post about your move, that's also nicely written as I imagine I was there and feel happy buying new things. That's what I like when moving too, discovering the new facilities nearby especially the shops. Love visiting your blog always.

  26. Good Afternoon, Sheri! I am back-tracking thru your blog posts to catch up and enjoying myself. Your rain photos are very pretty. Like many others who commented, I love the pine branches with rain drops. Funny story about Stevi Nicks. We had an artist to paint a mural at one of our former houses and she looked so much like SN! She was a big fan too. She dressed very much like SN too. She went to one of her concerts and many people thought she was the real deal! lol
