Standing on the inside looking out...
not wishing too hard for the rain to stop, for that would be wrong in a drought.
I went out regardless of the wet. A garden lover, even a chaotic one, needs to garden and my need was great.

The neighbors watched from the dead tree. This is the kind of family I enjoy sharing my street with. We have trees with leaves but they prefer this one. I'm not about to argue with a magpie about seating arrangments in wet weather, they have very pointy beaks so they can sit where they want.

I spied droplets on tiny trumpet like flowers
or are they umbrellas for ants?

then I checked my chickens, all safe in their pots.

and because I had taken the time to tend to it, my garden gave me a rose

There's something double special about getting out into the garden on a wet day in winter. Be joined by feathered friends, hope they sang to you, see jewels of raindrops decorating flowers and spy one special rose saying thank you*!*
