Vivid / Vernal

The sky is full and rolling with grays;

the earth is lush with new life, 

shades of green licking up all that wet air.

Soon there will be deep blue skies 

and blossoms of pinks and yellows,

with a sun that bakes and steams.

So I will savor the coolness of these gray days,
splashing through puddles,
breathing in the soil-scented mist.
