Raindrops keep falling on their heads …

But that doesn’t mean their eyes will soon be turning red …

Our dear friend Dennett, the creator and editor of Weeds and Wildflowers, loves raindrops on things, so I scoured through my back files and found these two examples of raindrops on plant leaves.

Whenever I see raindrops, it reminds me of a favorite movie — “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid”, and a favorite song “Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head”

So I am dedicating these two raindrops photos and the chorus from the song to Dennett and Captain Argentina…

Chorus from Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head

…But there’s one thing I know
The blues they send to meet me
Won’t defeat me, it won’t be long
Till happiness steps up to greet me

I hope for that chorus to come true for our two friends, Dennett and Captain Argentina…

Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head. Song by Burt Bacharach/Hal David, performed by B. J. Thomas for the movie Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
