Outdoor Attraction ~ March 8, 2016

It's almost 60 degrees here in my neck of the woods. Despite the gray clouds that have rolled in making it a bit dreary, I couldn't resist opening the windows.

Oh, my goodness ~ what a delight! That breeze, those birds, that wonderful smell of SPRING!

I think the animals felt my sentiments exactly.

What do you think? ☺

Nighttime Storm

Just as I am getting ready for bed

lightening dances across the sky  

and thunder rumbles in mild protest.

The air is saturated with the smell

of a sweet, springtime rain

and before long I hear it beginning to fall.

The thunder comes more insistently now

with each flickering flash of light

and I settle in for a sweet night of sleep

to the sound of pitter pattering rain.
