rising water, May ‘23

swollen with rainfall 
the creek rising from its bed 
ready to rumble

cottonwood fluff, May ‘23

the rain stopped falling 
then a flurry of white fluff 
something’s unsettling

duck’s weather, May ‘23

not too often seen 
a duck wading on this street 
testing the water

April showers, Apr ‘23

when April rain comes 
helps to think of May flowers 
letting hearts be glad

front yard hailstones, Apr ‘23

a moody morning
the weather turns dramatic 
barrage of hailstones
