I hear the raindrops dancing on my roof
The pitter-patter sound they make is proof
That even passing raindrops sing-along
To note that God and man, they too belong !
CARPET OF FALLEN BLOOMS ( 2018 ) 2018/05/12
Sweet cherry blossoms filled the air
They fluttered frantic with despair
And twirled above the barren ground
As all their blooms were settling down.
Their color faded in the mist
Where raindrops and warm breezes kissed
Their crumbled blossoms ruled the street
Where silken ashes cushioned feet !
