Unbidden
o, unbidden rain, I welcome you to my garden
the flowers are thirsty . . . . .
we have been w a i t i n g for you
the cosmos, daisies and red roses are hanging their heads

L rain with glistening drops, gentle
and with deep love kiss each sweet petal and tender leaf
the vines are reaching out their tendrils t w i n i n g and curling
o, the pleasant petrichor scent, the delightful drip, dripping
can you hear the flowers s i n g i n g even a green frog yells out . . .
thanks, do come again rain
rain, come our way again . . .
