April Rain

Rain
                                                       drops of 
                                                   diamonds fall
                                                   on April days
                                   landing on the petals of red daisy's 
                               sinking into the earth to start new seeds
                                                     for a season
                                                     that begins
                                                         with a
                                                           kiss.
