April Rainbow
We race up the hillTo catch a rainbow
Dark to the right
Light to the left
Thru droplets of rain
A mist of colors
Drops from the sky
Onto the red red roof
Luck?

April in Paris
The only time I was ever in Paris was in April.It was rainy and gray, except for this day!
"I never knew the charm of spring
I never met it face to face
I never new my heart could sing
I never missed a warm embrace
Till april in paris, chestnuts in blossom
Holiday tables under the trees
April in paris, this is a feeling
That no one can ever reprise"
Song by Harburg/Duke

April Showers- New York
New York. New York.Or any city.
A view through raindrops-
a taxi, buildings, lights;
someone not singing in the rain.
Woosh. Wet. Splash!
April showers.

April Umbrellas
Down comes the rain.Up go the umbrellas.
From above we see:
a box of trix,
or a box of crayons,
or a field of flowers.
Yes, April showers.

Reflections: Gold Coast
Dotting the coast are the mansions.Turn of the century symbols of wealth.
Carriages, servants, privileged summers by the sea.
So large- many were torn down.
Making way for the new McMansions. Reflections of a time past?
