Reflections On A Slow Falling Spring Rain

Reflections On A Slow Falling Spring Rain

Slow falling raindrops

Add dampness to the spring air

And quenching water to fertile soil

Nourishing resurrected foliage

Preparing to reflect renewed rainbow

Colors and the release of glowing pollen

Into the coming bright sunlight

Return from its winter interlude.

Albeit the pollen be a nagging offspring

Of the season, it will receive accommodating

Welcomes denied to the uninvited corona virus.

Indeed, the spring has its sad and its happy beauties

That brings relief to tested muscles and wintered bones

That somehow survived the chilling pain of the freezing cold.
