One of my favorite things to do on a rainy, grey day is to visit a park, especially the tradtionally landscaped ones here in Japan. The mossy rocks and trees take on a deeply green color, and the stones are stained dark grey. Everything glistens in the overcast sunlight.

It was on a day like this a few months ago that I began the idea for this song. Normally people associate sad (minor scale) music with rainy days, but I wanted to capture some of the moody yet inspiring aspects of a stormy day.
