May winds whisper, to rumor summer’s arrival
in time to insure my frail humor’s survival
winter’s rains held firm and quite long this year
but stubborn skies at last begin to clear
gentle summer rains come soft bending to embrace
companion summer sun reaches warmly to touch my face
the seasons bow for this brief interlude
as if to hail my brightened attitude
seeds push eager sprouts through warm fertile earth
life giving rain cycles to this time of birth
apple blossoms pop boldly forth through ripened limb
rain-fresh waters push streams near full their brim
bird songs sparkle crisp through greening trees
fragrance of new bloom wafts softly in stirring breeze
all ’round summer leans in for boisterous spring
in the quiet sweetness, my heart begins to sing

And the delight is evident throughout your verbal images, your painting, and choice of songs. Made me happy!
Thank you Susan! As much as I embrace my melancholy, I do enjoy when my “soul sun” breaks through the clouds, it makes me happy as well… 🙂
Just beautifull, Rob! Makes my heart sing.
