Street light on a rainy spring evening

It has been drizzling for a whole day and I have not been in a mood to paint. Then, all of a sudden when  I looked out of the bedroom window at 9 p.m , the urge to paint came back to me , and I grabbed my easel and set up by the window and painted this view in darkness.
