With drums of thunder and a melody of rain.
Wind flutes played loud sniveling notes,
Carrying pulsating tunes in blustery tones.
Streaks of lightening, with their baton of light,
Led the...

rain drops to snowflakestiny raindrops appeared from
a sunny sky then tiny beads
of sleet began in a cold breeze...

so scattered snowflakes began...

Lilians's KindnessI'm trying to count on these fingers the umbrellas
I've lost on windy days: wasn't it hard chasing them?
And swallowing raindrops, I challenged the mayhem!

When Everything Loses Its BeautyEvery lively landscape and tree were stripped
by fierce winter of their verdant, elegant dress:

A robin’s egg in the grass
All fractured and bashed-in.

Pearls Of Rain-Andaree
As the melting clouds descend down to drench you,
why rave rupture wets you, you’ve no clue.

pours in streak.
Pearls make pristine chain,

Spring ShadowClouds bursting on clouds from the uncured rain,
Where stemmed wicks snuff out flower smoke,
Fissures that droop so much deeper—
The air full of seed will burn out the storm.
Where stemmed wicks snuff out flower smoke,
A girl...
