May Showers
Showers April brought to us -
showers more than sun,
and I just kept wondering
when they would be done!
May arrived and in the sky,
clouds were dark with rain.
Then it even snowed a bit.
Nature seemed insane!
My poor roses on the bush,
still they haven’t bloomed.
Yet today the sun came out,
so they are not doomed.
Just a few more sunny days -
I might see flowers.
Mother Nature, please, for now,
delay May showers.
