Spring Umbrella Walk

Picture

by Kathy Warnes


In the spring Brownie and I once again,

Grab our umbrella and  walk in the rain,

The rain is steady and warm and slow,

It greens the trees and makes flowers grow.

The spring wind is like a sleeping bear

Warming  the rain and snoring the air,

Then  the wind wakes up with a loud shout

And  turns my umbrella inside out!!
