I enjoyed the images throughout your beautiful poem. How rain changes from the harsh stormy rain to the gentle showers that bring beauty to the garden and rainbows to brighten our lives.

A lovely reminder that there will always be rainy days in life, both literally and figuratively. But life is change and there are better days coming if we can just remember that and wait. Beautifully written. A nice addition for your book.

It's been very rainy here in New England. But the garden will benefit from these showers. Your poem is as refreshing as spring rain, as it reminds us of the rainbows that will follow. Life balances our in the end.

April showers bring May flowers, right? This poem is a celebration of those gifts of rain, that we sometimes don't quite appreciate. Everyone loves those sunny days, the brightness and the tint. But without rain, there are no flowers. estory

Hi this is quite good piece of writing. I like it. Well of course, it has got it own different mood on different day of the Spring. But that natural.,sometimes cold, sometimes cool and wet , lack of su.
And musty.
But they are all wrapped up...one parcel.
Enjoy them

Hi Donna,

I always love the promise of the rainbow after unpleasant rains.

I like the way you contrast past, present, and future in this piece.

Your poem has such a lovely flow! I really enjoy how you share the different moods of rain throughout the days. The hopeful tone in the last stanza adds a nice feeling of optimism. I felt like I was watching the rain with you!
