Laughter after the Rain

Spring rains kiss the grass.

Puddles nourish the parched Earth.

Withered trees rejuvenate.

Leaves sprout from so many vines.

The sun sneaks a peek between thick clouds.

Tiny buds burst forth, blooming with laughter

for this fantastic game of hide and seek.

The sky in laughter’s response paints a colorful bow

high above the cheerful blooms.
