April Rains

The day is warm, sunny and bright Butterflies emerging from a long, dark night One by one, each slowly begins unfolding her wings Dancing ever higher, to a song Mama Bird sings Animal babies everywhere take pause & listen Dewdrops upon the flowers tinkle and glisten After the mighty rain the night before Vibrant colors as the sun sweeps across the meadow floor First day of a new year, every single Spring Budding new life only April Rains can bring
