Carol A Hand
***
Gradually losing the light as clouds roll in
lightning flashes in the western sky
booming thunder announces rain’s imminent arrival
to tap a soothing rhythm on the roof and awaken gardens
budding life hopeful that April showers
signal spring’s definitive arrival
***
Great, dear Carol! Cheers!

Under these circumstances Carol, it is best to have an umbrella with lights.
Lovely poem and great photos.

Carol, Tubularsock is and has been very impressed with your beautiful poetic abilities. Your poems always put Tubularsock in a contemplative mood.
You may not have noticed in your third photo that Tubularsock can be seen on the extreme left edge of the moon just as the cloud covered him.
Funny thing, Tubularsock lit up a wonderful joint and DAMN there he was on the moon.
And Carol your photo proves IT!
Don’t worry, Tubularsock will be down soon.
May the force be with you and keep your light saber handy, Trump’s loose!

Thank you again, Tubularsock. No need to come down – you have the best seat – a moon’s-eye-view of the world, sometimes filtered by silver-lined clouds. Who could ask for a better perspective? 🙂

Wonderful photos and words! The rain will most certainly bring the garden to life. Even the lightning helps bring things to life. Take care Carol! Bob
