April Rain

April Rain

A Poem by

One early morning I awoke

to the sound of steady patter

of summer rain on the rooftop

and saw the raindrops scatter

 

and trickle down the window pane

to dissolve the april scene

against the backdrop of a clear sky

in a haze of brown blue green

 

and make it look like a painting

by a little child

with a brush and watercolors

and imaginations wild

What the mind can create with time and a rainy day. I like the story and the ending. A excellent poem.

Very visual..you have a style that is hard to find in this day and age..
Metaphor seems to be a lost art, but you have found, and make very good use of it...the good thing about it , is that your use of reality is also good, so that makes your poems a perfect mix.

the imagery here is so vivid, even with the slightly haunting singsong of the rhyme scheme. this is just... great work.

Great imagery, very pretty poem. I can't wait till winter becomes spring and all the snow turns to rain.
