the rain falls slowly
traffic moving at snail’s pace
roadworks and rainbows
city’s eastern edge
awash with sunshine rainfall
it’s spring’s first rainbow
before the storm hits
yellow daffodil hearts bloom
drive to funeral

the rain falls slowly
traffic moving at snail’s pace
roadworks and rainbows
city’s eastern edge
awash with sunshine rainfall
it’s spring’s first rainbow
before the storm hits
yellow daffodil hearts bloom
drive to funeral

the drab grey mizzle
descends upon unseen bay
two crows chatter on
a thick pea-souper
can’t see pathway to shoreline
carry in firewood
hidden midday sun
attempts to burn morning mist
tranquil bay asleep
