Rainy day musings

Soon after I posted yesterday, a storm rolled through central Ohio. For those who do not know, I work on the campuses of the Ohio School for the Deaf (OSD) and the Ohio State School for the Blind (OSSB). My office at OSD looks out on a heavily wooded ravine. Here are my thoughts as I looked out at the storm passing through on Monday:

Darkness rolls in turning day into night.

Rain pelts that green leaves, the creek rises beyond its banks.

My phone keeps chiming as the special weather alerts pop up.

Thoughts range from the good the rain will go for plants,

To hoping our scouts are safe at camp.

Extra love will be given to the puppy dog tonight.
