Ten minute poem.

"Nothing Much To Talk About ..."

...except the rain, the rain, the
n e v e r e n d i n g wet.  Dare I
complain or takes what we gets?
Afraid to ask.  Needed it
but enough's enough.  Tired, Lord.
Soaked.  Mildewed.  As gray as clouds,
outside.  Can only jump so
many puddles:  hard to do
when they're all ... over.  Sure as
shootin', when it stops, it will
stop.  Send it to places that
are crying for it, like the
West and Southeast.  Need a break,
here.  Temperatures are nice,
though, liking that.  Third wettest
June now.  Believe it.  Nothing
much to talk about, except
the rain, which keeps moving in.
You should see it to the West .....

(c) 2007, Karla Dorman (6/27)

You've expressed it well my friend. This weather, I don't think I've ever seen anything like it! Such dramatic changes in the strangest places! It's a bit scary! We are still under a drought, we have recieved rain, but not enough to bring the water levels up. On our trip the other day, we crossed a bridge where beneath used to be a roaring river, I was stunned! The river had narrowed to a large creek or stream with what appeared to be a beach on each side...which was actually the exposed river bed! We need to band together and pray for the entire nation...fires, floods, droughts, tornadoes, I've had enough as well my friend! Hope it will let up for you and Karen...
Blessings,
Joyce B.

When we need it bad enough it never comes, but when we don't need it, it comes down in buckets. Very well penned Karla, and I could feel your emotions running, as you wrote this.

May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your sister, Barbie

Maybe we could bottle it and ship it off to needed places????? Go out to mow and the grass cuts in clumps, sticks and the motor cuts off till it gets cleaned. Go out to edge and by the time I go back into the house I am covered in water and mud from head to toe. 1/3 of driveway under water, you are right! Enough!!!!!!!

Be safe,
Karen

Truly is crazy here: Y I K E S! Not good what's going on; too much wet stuff here! I'm S I C K of it; enough is enough already!! WHAAAAA~!

LOL) Let's send this stuff to places that NEED it, NOT HERE!!

I know it gets old after so long but unless it's flooding it's better than drought. Good one Karla, enjoyed.

Is your rain gauge under water by now, Karla? Hope not. We must be better off than people in certain townships in Britain.

I suppose with so many of us praying for rain that when nature decided to give it all at once, some got more than others but it is "LIFE" for many creatures and vegetation. Soon it will stop and droughts will have us praying again. Maybe a rowboat's the answers when nature geys too generous.
Love and my blessings.
