Raindrops keep falling on my leaves, but that, as the song (sung by B.J. Thomas) goes,
"doesn't mean my eyes will be turning red, no cryings not for me..."
Instead I am continuing to heed the wisdom of Elizabeth Lawrence when I spend time in my garden — even on rainy days, which is a fact I've mentioned in
previous posts here on Blogger.
Ms. Lawrence is known to remind folks that
"even if something is left undone, everyone must take time to sit still and watch the leaves turn."
Not only have I taken the time to watch the leaves turn, I've taken the time to appreciate "raindrops on foliage," as evidenced in the pictures accompanying this entry featuring leaves from my
Japanese Maple (AKA 'Tamukeyama').
All of this is mentioned in volume one of my book series,
Words In Our Beak.
