The Water is Wide

Yesterday it rained; a damp, mizzling sort of rain.
Last night it rained; wet, heavy showers of rain.
This morning it rained; wetter, continuous rain.

This afternoon it finally stopped, and the water level in the basin has risen now looks like this......

                                                                     ...........................chocolate soup.

The river level started to rise..............

                                                                    ......................onto the red board,

 and up to the edge of the pathway.

In fact it is now over the bank edges on both sides of the river, and still rising.
But tomorrow promises to be a better day.............
