This was a beautiful poem. July has certainly been a rainy month here. Two straight weeks of rain and thunderstorms. Today, little chance of rain but it is cooler and no humidity. The rain does renew life. Beautifully written. Gretchen

It's true - when we're parched for rain during the summer, we can really celebrate a "July rain" because it's been such a long time since our last rainfall and our plants are thirsty! Great pictures and poem to describe this event.

I like this one a lot, Gypsy. You capture the lovely beauty of rain and its blessings. When it rains, I tell the Lord ~ thank you for every drop ~ A wonderful verse that I enjoyed.

I love the idea of walking or dancing in the rain and the raindrops being kisses from above, either loved ones or God. Either is perfect. Thank you for sharing this wonderful poem and presentation with us.

It's certainly been that kind of July for us here in Upstate NY! So much rain! Everything looks lush and verdant. The weeds are having a field day, though, so that's the down side. But this is a lovely take on how to view rain. Thank you for this unusual slant. xoxo

I must admit I'm not that fond getting wet, it can be dam cold too, but summer rains can be quite different, especially if one has suffered a prolonged drought, beautifully written, blessings Roy

You make July rain sound very romantic and refreshing! But here in the UK we're not so charmed by it:( Still I'll try and retain the memory of your delightful verse next time we get a downpour (which could be soon:( ) Thanks for sharing, Gypsy! Debbie
