Rigby's Creek, Tourne Park.jpg
“Rigby’s Creek” — C.Birde, 4/17

Rain drips from

Beech and Oak,

Hickory and Maple;

patters and splashes

against the creek’s

swollen back;

Frogs join in

hiccuped song.

Loveletters

Spring Reign — An Image

“Rain-Washed Evergreens” — C.Birde, 3/17

 

Drip and patter.

Distant thunder’s purr.

Birds’ persistent song

and chatter scrawled

over inverted,

cloud-drawn sky.

Spring Reign.

— C.Birde, 3/17
