Green Rain Falling

~

Green rain falling.

Staccato dripping from gutters,

Broken by frog song,

Call and response from the pond;

Celebration of wet abundance.

~

~

Ground glistens below

Jewel encrusted leaves.

~

~

Steady patter, hour after hour.

Creek filled ditches flowing,

Flowing, flowing, where?

~

~

Frogs shelter on  windows, hunting

By porch light.

~

~

Turtle heaven,

Watery world

Filled with liquid shadows.

~

~

Birds perch beneath the eaves,

Warbling,

Waiting,

Rainy week in June.
