Rain on a window pane, tap tapping as it falls
Lightning on night’s canvas illuminating all;
Imbibe an otherworldliness, a glamour and a veil
A conquering of dreams where reality prevails.
Daffodils blooming as spring dances on its way
with them comes the sun-warmed, glorious long day;
which drifts then into twilight with an epilogue of song
of willow warblers bright farewell to the day just gone.
Momentary shadow as cloud blows ‘cross the sun
a reminder of the balance that sometimes is hard won;
yet in it there is magic, as there is in everything
to transform and to illuminate all our days may bring.
