snow melts into rain
not quite summer showers yet
the rebirth begins
april showers bring
worms out of hidden places
stranded on dry ground
the muddy puddle
reminded the old of youth
getting rain boots wet
in a willow tree
the dull bird hoards useless things
to keep hatchlings safe
bushes full of blooms
their caretakers give them life
the garden needs them
potted basil plants
taken out for the first time
they grow in return
when my mother smiles
it's like a shower of sun
the daisies perk up
plaid blanket picnics
on early morning dewdrops
we smile while grass stained
pollen thick as smog
the world turns green, nature free
the bees sound mocking
laughing little girls
pick the honeysuckle vines
to suck the nectar
