Rain is important to me.

So important that I have developed a strong relationship with the local Rain God, who likes being called RainFather, and Storm Singer and Sky Shaker and Life Bringer. He’s kinda old school I guess … but he’s so freakin’ cool at the same time. I have written about him before.

Musings of a Sound Medicine Woman is a reader-supported publication. I’d be honored if you found my work compelling and wanted to get more of it. Thank you, and thanks to all my current supporters who are helping me build this thing.

This song was written in August of last year, and somehow I don’t think I managed to post it here, which seems curious. So I’m posting it now, because it’s a tenderly rainy day with chuckling thunder and gentle lightning. But the day I wrote this song was after a night of serious storm action, which was delicious to behold.

Enjoy!
