A spring song

Grey clouds and mizzle - 

An appropriately sober

Dose of springtime drizzle

I hope lasts through October. 

Enough that bees and flowers

Enjoy their youthful fling - 

But without springtime showers,

They will not bear a thing. 

We'll have more weeks of boggy

Sodden gloom to trudge through yet: 

So thank God for the soggy

And for the rain and wet.
