Best Weather

Good rain falls today it's not splashing violently down filling gutters and causing flooding, it falls softly and is welcomed by the soil, grass and leaves. Peaceful and lazy I stand in the doorway looking out and I hear guns rusting quietly in the rain, as damp ammunition fizzes white smoke, but does no harm. If I could bottle peace of this un-heroic landscape of Algarve and send it to Palestine; will it be drunk? Or will they claim it's against their religion to do so? I don't know, and you don't come calling me a seer, it's just that all the peace around here is a waste and it ought to be exported to those who need it
