Definitely not snow covered ~
roads splash under tires while
cold ~ not really cold ~
rain avoids a snowflakes life
drip dropping rain puddles
and pooling into dirty ponds
draining over cement curbs
of sidewalks and onto asphalt
grassed boulevards and parks
mush and slush while
cold water drizzles and drops
from slate grey flat skies
through moss patched trees awaiting
the warmth of tomorrow’s sun
snow drops and crocus shiver,
close up in the cold and damp
Brightly coloured rain gear for Eva and I
hung up to drip dry behind closed doors.
“Into each life some rain must fall.”
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
