Over attentive lover
Prince of Spring and life it brings
Your plenitude far from teasing us
To put on garments just to please
Is causing us to glance wistfully
At our dancing slippers of colorful silk
In the closet still and until
The sometimes overwhelming Sun
Returns to chase you back a while
All's fair in love and war
Where less is sometimes more
Over ardent Rain
Stay back and let the yellow might
Coax us up into the light
Gentle up sweet Rain
And let us dress in colors once again

Could feel the frustration of those flowers appealing - - such an inventive write Lorna and a delight to read . Hope soon the rain will bend an ear and cease........ at least for the blooms to wear a smile again.
I feel like I'm living in the UK....... on a soggy soggy day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ek1KFID0gSc
What a wonderful song, its been great here in Britain. Sun has been shining for weeks, I just gave it a like wink. Should be with in the next 3/6 working days.
The flowers are drenched
They have soaked up their fill
Now it's time for the sun to shine
So the other creatures can now dine
A very pleasant read indeed
Thank you Suresh - always appreciated..

RAIN & The Water Cycle are
The Suctainers of LIFE on Earth
And yet we never want it to
RAIN on our PARADE !

This Year & everyone rejoiced !
Friends of Ours went to the Buckingham Palace
Today ~ The SUN has shone all afternoon ~ AMEN !

You look to the sky and all you see is grey
Whats Trump doing to the weather over US of A
He thinks global warming is a kinda a myth
False news he says, is he taking the piss?
Your grandkids amd mine will reap the wirlwind
To neglect it now is a mortal sin
Oh please Dusk....... we're truly f.....k'd with Trump. I am so ashamed...........
A fine write Lorna.
Its a mild Winter we are having this Spring. If any hope remains, or if you need a bit of weather news from the bright side, birds were flooding our tree today, cardinals, orioles, chickadees, etc.
Let the flowers scream for Sun, maybe Nature will listen. Your poem makes their case elegantly Clever to have given them a voice. Great imagery. Springtime emotions from our flowery friends. terrific write. - Phil A.
It's pretty up in Salem...........
Rain brings life
life brings hope
Hope brings colour
The weather has been hot and sunny here in middle England for some time now and is set to continue. Just to make you jealous !!

I'm glad for you - I really am! So you get get out and paint M. van Gogh.........
That was supposed to be so you can get out and paint....... but you knew that.
Very good write Lorna, I do hope that you will be able to dress in colours very soon.
I woke up to a sunny day Andy! You did it!
