Raindrops splash in purple puddles
Wind in pointed pinwheels rattles
Thunder speaks in rumbling riddles
Sky is cracked where lightning whittles
Frosty dirt and dry leaves crackle
Windblown cattails’ seedpods tickle
Woodpeckers on bare trees chuckle
Burrowed critters wait the sequel
Snowflakes craft a crystal cover
Icicles on tree limbs shiver
Drifts of snow pile up and over
Blinding white goes on forever
Butterflies on flowers flutter
Squirrels crack nuts with a clatter
Wings of bees and insects glitter
Birds trill out their tunes by letter
Every season, every day
What a bountiful bouquet
