April Rain Song

Let the rain kiss you

Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops

Let the rain sing you a lullaby

The rain makes still pools on the sidewalk

The rain makes running pools in the gutter

The rain plays a little sleep song on our roof at night

And I love the rain.

Langston Hughes

So far the British summer has been a bit of a wash out. With very few days you could actually call summer.

Let's take a look at some useful and inspirational writing gifts that will lift any writer's mood on a rainy day.

1. Works by Langston Hughes

If you enjoyed the poem above by Langston Hughes here are some of his books:

Wind down with a cup of tea tagged with a literary quote.

Have a splashing time in these class British wellington boots.

If you prefer to write outside, this book is durable, waterproof, weather proof and long lasting.

Match up your waterproof notebook with this pen that writes through water, grease and mud.

Keep your mobile phone dry in heavy rain or when you fancy a day out at the beach.

Cards that stimulate conversations and spark the imagination on a rainy day.

A simple fine white ceramic mug for a rainy day.

Teach yourself the art of calligraphy with one of the most popular calligraphy sets on the market.

Read my book of "bizarre and gruesome accounts of true stories found throughout history".
