I can picture the great Eduardo Galeano sitting at his writing desk in Uruguay closing his eyes to listen to the rain.
Like Eduardo, I have always enjoyed the sound of rain - while reading, while writing, while meditating, while simply relaxing.
Likewise with the sound of cicadas or crickets or birds, at all hours of the day but especially at night.
RAIN
Among all the world's music and all heaven's too, my favorite is the concerto for solo rain.
Every time it plays on the skylight of my house, I listen as if I were at mass.
*Rain is included in Eduardo Galeano's last published book Hunter of Stories
