I know the thrill of the grasses
when the rain pours over them.
I know the trembling of the leaves
when the winds sweep through them.
I know what the white clover felt
as it held a drop of dew pressed close in its beauteousness.
I know the quivering of the fragrant petals
at the touch of the pollen-legged bees.
I know what the stream said to the dipping willows,
and what the moon said to the sweet lavender.
I know what the stars said
when they came stealthily down and
crept fondly into the tops of the trees.

Nice poem, and great colours and sharpens in the pictures.

I love the shots of the raindrops on the grass...and the selection of poetry. The two fit together so well!

I am trying too. Last couple of days have been tough. I haven't posted because I need a bit of a break to collect my thoughts and regroup my sanity...

I understand. At least you have the distraction of Steemit, even if you are just reading posts. As a nurse you already know how important it is to stay mentally rested too.

I love the shots of the raindrops.
I have always wanted to take a shot of rain or raindrops, but I need a better camera, since my pictures never turn out this clear and beautiful but I love the idea.

Very nice photos! And I totally think you would love a macro lens :-) It sort of makes one wonder whether those v-shaped leaves are intended to channel water or hold onto it.
I like the composition in the first one, but the leaf texture in the second image is nice, and you get a little maginfication through the dropplet. Very cool.

It's amazing what a little movement makes in texture - I moved to the other side of the plant and the leaf texture was perfect (in my mind anyway), but not the first one - so it has to be the way the light hit the plant from the other side.
I probably would like a macro lens. I'm very curious about things up close - probably bc I can't see up close :)
Thanks Mark.!

The photos are lovely! I really enjoy capturing droplets... dew, rain, whatever... on plants and flowers. And the words definitely create a mood, there. A very nice peaceful interlude here in the "crypto jungle!"

Thanks so much @trudeehunter....you have a wonderful weekend too! Today is Sunday....and it's 100F outside and even tho I'm inside I can feel the oppressive humidity. I think a movie would be nice about now.

Thank you @countrygirl. You have my sympathy with having to put up with the humidity. A movie in a cool air conditioned sounds like the best revenge for the heat. (:

Don't you just love hunting out the dew or rain on items and trying to get a great shot of it?! These are awesome and get me excited about hunting my own. As always, the perfect poem to go with your photographed subject. cute!
