I wake up and look out the window. The sky is gray and full of clouds. Rain falls softly on the roof. I hear the sound of raindrops. The sound is very peaceful. I stay in bed a little longer. Then I get up and go to the kitchen. I make a cup of hot tea. The tea warms my hands. I sit by the window and watch the rain. Water runs down the glass. The garden looks wet and green. The flowers need the rain. A small bird hides under a leaf. The bird waits for the rain to stop. I decide to read a book today. I sit on the sofa with a blanket. The room is warm and cozy. I listen to the rain while I read. In the afternoon, the rain becomes stronger. I can hear thunder in the distance. My cat sleeps on the chair. She does not like the thunder. In the evening, the rain finally stops. I open the window and smell the fresh air. The air smells clean after the rain. I see a rainbow in the sky. The rainbow has many beautiful colors. The bird comes out and sings. I love rainy days like this.
