Rain

British Columbia

How beautiful is the rain !
After the dust and heat,
In the broad and fiery street,
In the narrow lane,
How beautiful is the rain !

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, from his poem 'Rain In Summer.'

We were missing a few key elements of the poem on Sunday and I'm certain the
competitors at a local Dressage event didn't see the beauty at that moment. :)
