Spring Showers I had a friend who gardened but sadly her health has waned- still, I know she dreams of flowers and welcomes good health like spring when showers of petals rain from blossom laden boughs and form a pale pink carpet for her to tiptoe on. Who can be sad in spring when rain awakens dormant bulbs and every where is fragrance and flowers in multitudes I picked the daffodils this morning with raindrops in their yellow cups and her smile was like a rainbow that spread across the room. Placed ———- in Russell Sivey's "Spring Shower Contest.

Thanks Therese You are very kind and although I am not a true kinsman I feel blessed to be your friend in poetry. My friend is in Vancouver,BC and I lived there in the early seventies but I am actually an Australian by birth and a kamaaina in Hawaii for 30+ years, You will get quite a sprinkling from each place throughout my poems.

Hi Andrea: Yes it is and so glad to be inspired to write again.....I was just talking to my friend in Canada who loves to garden but recently had bladder cancer so I am sending her a card and a virtual bunch of daffodils. I see you are very special to this site and it is fun how it is so interactive. I will try to find Kathryn here also. Big Hugs and thanks for the welcome.
