A gentle, gray rain
a falling softly
patters, whispers on patio.
Enhanced wake-up time
just the few brave birds
almost warm, almost April.
Planted non-native trees
foreign leaves awash
potting bark a smelling.
Breakfast pulling up
fast food potatoes, no doubt
almost warm, this morning.
Roust my baby from the shower
quick prayer before the gobble
satisfied smoking in the rain.
South Park chef on the tube
Mrs. on-line killing goblins
almost warm, a writing.
Tending tword, all is alright
tis near, sense of contentment
feeling the love, family love.
Enhanced morning showers
outside, inside, we all clean
almost warm, almost April.
