rain!

Sep 26, 2006 01:43

At long last, after many teasing reports from friends in the low land, it's finally raining here too. Unlike their stories of sudden gushes and giant drops, the mountain rain sneaks down from patch-work clouds and is very delicate, so much so that it took me a while to hear it over Geva Alon who is so appropriately playing in my stereo.

I think I might be becoming a winter person again. I change personality seasons every few years, though if you sum up the past 27 years, I think I've been a summer for the greater part. But this recent autumnness fills me with so much joy, it must be accounted for. Yesterday, when I got off the buss from Ra'anana, all it took was three breaths of cold Jerusalem air to erase all the stress and restlessness of the long weekend. No matter what I'm feeling or thinking, a single stroke of cold wind, the slightest chill, is enough to make me smile.

And now - rain! I can't wait to finish my socks.
