| Posted by Maude Curtis on 08/09/09 at 04:34 PM very good. I love the smell of an early morning summer rain. |
| Posted by A. Paige White on 08/09/09 at 05:30 PM I do adore your summer sense of rain in this. The Mississippi summer taught us to cherish any cloud cover naked, or as close to naked as we can get. A sensory shower, sweet Ali. |
| Posted by Anita Mac on 08/11/09 at 03:35 AM I love this moment. Masterful! |
| Posted by Laurie Blum on 08/13/09 at 11:44 AM This is absolutely beautiful... I can feel the warm summer night against my skin. Perfectly expressed Alison! |
| Posted by Glenn Currier on 08/14/09 at 01:47 PM Perfect. It could be a senryu or a haiku. It could be you awakening or the trees, a blade of grass. This imparts peace. Oneness with Mother Earth. Thanks for this sweet awakening. |
| Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 08/14/09 at 06:28 PM I love the first part of this Alison, but wish the second half (after the comma) could be just as outstanding; perhaps in time a better line will come. Congrats none the less on hitting No. 1. |
| Posted by Tony Whitaker on 08/15/09 at 11:57 AM Sorry Glenn, but I actually enjoy the added alliteration as well as the olfactory and visual experience of the last line of this beauty. Well done Al-i-son! |
| Posted by Allison Smith on 08/15/09 at 02:43 PM Nice! |
| Posted by Ken Harnisch on 08/16/09 at 05:37 AM succinct and lovely...like that summer rain |
| Posted by Sandy M. Humphrey on 08/19/09 at 03:15 PM I love this and the senses are indeed awakened by an expierence of summer scented rain...explore it further by tossing the blanket and dancing freely in the rain. excellent. smh |
