Eve Roper Poet Dizain

Spring-Summer Rain

An afternoon stroll, I could not detain; 
Together stroll arm-in-arm the distance.  
Whisk away with the sudden cool light rain.  
Fruit set, new growth, leaf and shoot existence. 
Marigold start to bloom, love's insistence. 
Butterflies swarm; all different  colours,
Across the garden with all the others. 
Spring-summer rain, flickering gray shadow, 
Blow the birds about with their small brothers.  
I hope it doesn't rain again tomorrow.

Andrea Dietrich April 12, 2020 at 5:39 PM truly a delightful dizain, dear Eve. Mine is not delightful at all, but I am hoping that was not a rule that it had to be delightful!! I love the topic of your poem here on this wonderful Easter day.
