Deb Wilson Poet Haiku

April Haiku

shards of rain and hail
   pounding on the soaking grass...
      april tempest blows

swollen river beds
    fields of winter turning green...
        peeking through the mud

showers feed the lawns
    tender shoots that spring up strong...
          flowers on the way

Judy Konos April 3, 2011 at 6:09 AM Deb, how true this is...Just few days ago golf size hail ripped into homes smashing siding and auto windshields with flooding in all the streets and still no electricity for many! We do look forward to your "Flowers on the way" with much anticipation.....Judy
