Ironwood blossoms
Fragrant after spring time rains
Victim of summer
~
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Coolness of morning
Dew envelops everything
Rain clouds have stormed off
~
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Crack…sound of thunder
Explosion like fireworks
Honoring nature
Rain…confetti showering
Crystal sparks upon the earth
What is more lovely
Than the beauty and power
Of Heaven above
She pauses to remind us
When we get too arrogant
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Sky obsidian
Smell of desert in the wind
Storm fast approaching
.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Traipsing through the mud
So nice to feel like a kid
Hope no one sees me
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Clouds layered thick, dark
Framing nature’s ragged face
She weeps for the sun
They are but star-crossed lovers
Counting down to reunion
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Overnight rain falls
Tap-dancing on the tile roof
Classic Fred Astaire
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Tiniest cricket
Seeks refuge from the storm
Symphony indoors
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Desert riverbeds
Parched and cracked from summer’s heat
Alive with rain’s breath
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Blanket overhead
Gray and low, most menacing
A storm approaches
~~Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
