June rain. Gentle rain. Solitary rain.
Bird song. I wake up in the morning. The quiet days continue. The sound of water droplets keep time like an unsteady clock.
I walk around outside. The hydrangeas are blooming. In other words, the season for hydrangeas to bloom has come again. The sound of rain on my umbrella. The rhythm of the clock has changed again.
I walk around outside. The new green of the trees is dancing in the cool breeze. I wonder if my own heart will move as well.
Plants grow in wet soil.
Umé Records presents the album "Invisible Gardener" by Warsaw, Poland's Botanica.
