I love the feel of springtime storm
Before the rain; when wind is warm
When clouds they gather up to meet
A time of rare; you just can’t beat

When raindrops then, they slowly fall
As dry earth beckons with its call
The scent of pleasure from the earth
What are times like this just worth?

I watch becalmed as tree limbs prance
As nature and her wind do dance
Then share a drop of nature’s wine
Amongst it all, on stage divine

Rick~
This piece clearly dances with lively imagery~

'I watch becalmed as tree limbs prance
As nature and her wind do dance
Then share a drop of nature’s wine
Amongst it all, on stage divine'


Oh ... I like this so much~

I know this exact moment, the smells in the air, the feel of awaiting the first drops. What a good job you did on it.
