April Showers Bring May Flowers

Anacreontic Verse

Spring rain comes 
dancing on ground 
it seeps through 
cracks of dry land
heals the wounds
and buds bloom
	Raw rain drops 
	stay quiet on leaves
	and dribble on
	nest beneath where
	love birds swing
	enjoy the patter
Brave breeze opens
red tulip buds
sunrays give kiss 
they feel shy and
bend towards wet
shade of trees
	Bluebirds sing 
	the tune of spring
	I calmly listen 
	and miss grandma 
	who used to keep 
	grains for hungry birds
