Chatter

The gray clouds are saturated A steady downpour falls Moisture to mature spring flowers Cleanse the air and all Droplets steadily pour from leaves Every portion washed cleaned The pecan tassels wait to open Their nectar insects will glean Fog fills the creek's deep holllow Penetrates every crack Its moisture chills the old body The emotions it racks Tree frogs enjoy the wet cool morn Chrip and click with their glee Their constant chatter fills my being Almost entices one to flee

Beautiful! Great images! I love listening to frogs, and crickets and birds.

At least you have frogs...where I live, lawn chemicals have killed off all of the frogs and turtles. An excellent poem that made me wish the frogs and turtles, of my youth, were back.

Great Imagery Sara! I love the detail in this little rainy day write. The pecan tassels...see them everywhere and the driveway is green. The frogs have also been singing their merry tune at home, but they are noisy.~jan #7
