This time last year
we were spoilt that’s for sure
As the sunshine it came
and the temperatures soared
But this year it seems
we’ve returned to the fray
For June in full swing
sees rain every day
It’s windy and frankly
the warmth could be better
and the plants that I’m growing
get wetter and wetter
I’m thankful for that
though I would like some sun
to reassure me
that the summer has come

And so to circles
Spreading like raindrops
in summer puddles
they give to reflection
for a moment or two
And then they are gone
Like whimsy
on a sunshine day

Soft, warm and gentle
getting wet doesn’t matter
as the water falls

Soft pitter patter
Summer rain falls from the sky
Fragrant petrichor

Felt a tiny splash
as I walked along the beach
Precipitation from the sky
just there out of reach
Cool, the April weather
had made me wrap up warm
So a little rain this time of years’
in keeping with the norm

April showers
or sunshine
I know which I’d prefer
Golden shafts v greyish strokes
To sunshine I defer

Walked home under rainbows
in a leaden sky
Gave me pause to wonder
as I hurried by
The hope left in that promise
all those years ago
With rain and shine a beauty
ever there on show
