Rainby Robert Louis Stevenson
The rain is raining all around,
It falls on field and tree,
It rains on the umbrellas here,
And on the ships at sea.
Guess what the weather is up to again. Sigh.

Edited again: Liz at A Chair, A Fireplace and A Tea Cozy, shares some Robert Browning.
And Melissa in the Bonny Glen shares the poem she named her site after. Now - is the site eponymous, or the poem? I'm never sure which direction to use that word.
I'm sure there are more, or will be soon - I'll check back later.

I just posted mine...and the rain is HORRIBLE. I could barely see two cars lenghth when driving to work, and the flooding is also terrible.
Thanks for including me in the roundup!
We had at least an hour of NOT RAIN this afternoon and I was able to go outside and pick pears. This was the highlight of my last two days.
No rain here in California but I did enjoying reading this one. Thank you.
