Desert Rain

Ahhhh, I love rain in the desert.  The clouds billow in, blue sky’s are filled with many shades of grey and if we’re lucky, the clouds are lined with a shimmering white light while rays of sunlight stream through, like God Ray’s.  

 Out in the back yard yesterday afternoon I could feel the increased moisture in the air.  When I took a deep breath the air felt silky and smooth.   Last evening the rain began coming down, so I sat and listened to the rain drops falling on the sky light, such a calming pleasant sound.    

This morning the heavy clouds and rain are feeding the cacti and creating beautiful streams rolling down the desert hills.  I have never appreciated rain as much as I do living in the desert.  The sounds, smells and feel of the rain falling upon your face when you step out into it, is nothing less then magical.
