The rain has passed

The wind is cool, it stirs the birdbath water pool

Wind-chimes ring a slow sweet song

Dancing branches all day long

 

Trees are opening up their leaves

Seems like all at once to me

Unfurling buds in bright spring green

Make the world all new and clean

 

Dandelions with their yellow light

Scattered ‘cross the lawn so bright

My peaceful Sunday afternoon

Wraps me in its warm cocoon
