Raindance
windswept rain slaps the bottoms of leaves
shivering they shed it
grassroots shake and slake their thirst
then wave their stems together
tight closed buds stand on their stems
reaching upward fretly
shaken yes but through it all
they hold together wetly
branches wave in shades of green
so many hues and tints are plain
Spring is here and she is seen
dancing in the rain
wind sings and swings
green tambourines in rythym
