Spring does have an unpredictable and capricious side, Andrea. You have captured that perfectly! So fun! Congratulations on your win. Easter blessings to you! Also love the reference to the smell of linen dried on a clothesline.

Oh no! Not when they were nearly dried, such a common scene written aesthetically:)

Perfect haiku. After a day's work, that's what we need - a shower.
