Drifting
A cold and rainy day
and I am just drifting.
and I am just drifting.
"The day is cold, and dark, and dreary;It rains, and the wind is never weary;
The vine still clings to the mouldering wall,
But at every gust the dead leaves fall,
And the day is dark and dreary."
- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, The Rainy Day

beautiful beautiful beautiful, Endment. Where are you drifting off to? (in know i know bad grammar) I hope it is to someplace where you can find some light ... :-)
You can make even a rainy day seem like a wonderful place to be.
Very nice picture and pretty poem. Ahhh...I'm drifting away with words. It's raining where I live and leaves are drifting to swirl among our busy existence. That picture makes a leaf more significant, and I'll start paying more attention when I step outside.
Another gem, endment. Thank you
Endment, this is lovely. May I drift along with you on this peaceful stream? You make rainy days a thing of beauty and wonder!
mmm ... lovely.
Dreary and very wet here.
I love a rainy day to sit inside beside the window. The rain looks much nicer when I'm not out in it!
Rain, it used to make me nervous, But, now I just curl up with a duilt and a book.
Longfellow. Perfect.
Drat~ typo- I mean -Quilt'.
I wish I was a leaf, sometimes. I need a little drifting in my life.
Very nice post today!
May you always drift to such lovely pictures and expressive poems!
That is so tranquil and lovely. Beautiful
there is peace in that surrrendering leaf
Captures a moment perfectly .... words and photo.
This Longfellow poem is very appropos for my neck of the woods. We have set records this week for rainfall, and that's really saying something for Seattle. Having grown up here, I happen to love the dark and dreary, wet and windy days. So, I also love these words that capture the beauty that some people don't see in such days. The photo is lovely, too. Thanks, Endment!
