Leaving muddy flooded fields

My Skewed Point Of ViewSome people say I'm strange,
I guess that could be true.
They just don't understand,
My kaleidoscopic view.
When the world gets them down,
They tap into their pain.
When the sky begins to cry,
I'll just dance in the rain.

April
After the downpour,
Petrichor wafts through the air;
Rainbow hangs above.
In flight, all birds of spring.
Long gone, the ghost of winter.

AprilA time of tulips
Pink cherry blossom thrills too
Refreshing rains roar
In age of red butterflies
Looking to deep golden hours

We need these
To connect with

Softly
Gently

The Earth rejoices

Flowers smile

Alive
We are here
There is hope
Always

A worrying sound
rain at party

a comforting sound
pattering rain
on the roof...
Jubilan blissful sound

April
April filled with love
Pretty blue skies with big clouds
Rain will bring a bath
Iris and flowers will grow
Lovely gardens springing up

In a Dark Sky
In a dark sky, an eclectic mix stirs
atmospheric storms and persistent winds.
Corrupting clouds with mottled mist deters
the full force where earth-bound lightening ends.
The raging quarrel within the sky trends
toward an unsettling sunrise that blurs.
Its vibrant...

A FRAGRANCE FROM THE SUMMER RAINWhen the first drop of the summer rain
touches the dry soil
there springs a fragrance
stronger than sandal wood
eucalyptus or elaichi.
It's a treat for the senses
that longs for the season's sensation
It's a earthy scent that
reaches far and...

Spring AllureIt has warmed to seventy degrees,
I lounge in a field of white daisies;
Composing fresh prose in solitude
longer days create a brighter mood;
The rain leaves dew drops on petals,
a seasonal smile blooms and settles;

Singing On A Rainy Day - Nursery Rhyme
How I love singing songs in the rain
with my big red umbrella held high
and my thick rubber boots buckled up
splashing puddles while I'm walking by.
The bright sun sleeps behind a big cloud
while the raindrops fall...

THE RAINY-DAY BUTTERFLY collabSquinting bush brown fertility
depends upon the rain.
Bright-eyed with possibility,
a vigorous refrain.

The eyespot-wings are glorious
with great downpour of storms.
They’re heartier, victorious -
This leading male performs.

Splash of Reality
Clear raindrops cling to fragile, thin branches
Small, circular windows hang before the fog
Dots of light shine beneath smoke colored sky
There's a glimmer of hope hanging gently, tightly
