Last measurable precipitation was May 9, 2006. No rain expected, just sunny, hot and humid conditions.
the ground yawns, gaps w i d e open, so deep one can smell its foetid breath and see its dark heart beating; the grass turns to chalk as the sun once more strangles the south in a tight noose ... death has a chokehold; the sky writhes in pain, cries silver'd tears in lightning's flash and roar of thunder: healing in the rain. i hope it's not too late ... pray for rain.
You certainly brought this home to me, Karla, and the images are gaunt and intense. Can feel both that noose and that parchedness. I am sorry for all my complainin about the rain back here... looks like we are having YOUR share as well. This write is sharp as greased lightning. Well done and I pray the healing comes soon... LOL Kate xx
Beautiful work Karla! Your images and words are superb! I'm praying you get more of the rain you need!
Love,

Such great images, brings back memories of the oppresive yet tranquil heat of Texas, just prior to a blaster of a storm...
Hope the healing rain, rains soon..
This is cleverly written with great imagery Karla. Superb job! We're in a drought too. Kinda sucks, but when it begins to rain, it's going to go nuts and not know when to quit. Love, Michelle

Ah, back to drought conditions, I see. Cheer up Karla, maybe the next hurricane will get up there and drop some on ya. I'm sorry, just kidding around. Actually it's a bit dry here in the swamp also.
Goodness gracious Karla Texans have weather that does go from one extreme to the othern My father, who was a Texan...said Texas always does things in a big way and I guess nature plays along. I will pray for you all to have rain soon. Be careful when it comes because of the vortex that spins out of rain storms.
Love and peace,

Who can understand the weather anymore!
The planet is certainly changing irrevocably.
