Rain..

Rain

I opened my eyes


And looked up at the rain,

And it dripped in my head

And flowed into my brain,

And all that I hear as I lie in my bed

Is the slishity-slosh of the rain in my head.

I step very softly,I walk very slow,

I can't do a handstand--

I might overflow,

So pardon the wild crazy thing I just said--

I'm just not the same since there's rain in my head.

Shel Silverstein



Its been raining since last Thursday.. For some reason rain gets me feeling more artsy-fartsy.. I’m a big fan of Shel Silversein’s work, it reminds me a lot of my childhood.. I also really like Emily D’s work..




I'm nobody! Who are you?

Are you nobody, too?

Then there's a pair of us - don't tell!

They'd banish us, you know!


How dreary to be somebody!

How public like a frog

To tell one's name the livelong day

To an admiring bog!

Emily Dickinson



I love poetry, but I love the paintings of Claude Monet so much more.



"Giverny in Springtime"



"I am not a great painter, great poet. I just know that I do what I can to express what I feel in front of nature."
Claude Monet


And who doesn’t love Van Gogh’s work?

"Branches of an Almond Tree In Blossom"
