Peaceful Prater

The pop corn patter of spring rain
slathering the landscape
curling the fern fronds
closing the dandelion’s ruff
gully washers 
speed through stone stream beds
marsh mallow yellow flowers
the lowlands and a misty
burgeoning peace settles over
a fresh May day.

Marvelous writing Deborah. Our May here in Northwest was so fresh it is now soggy. Looking forward to June. May I have one of your catch phrases? Love, Joyce
