April Rain

This rain started with soft pattering
A whiff of new green things
Then the wind picked up
And temperature dropped
The downfall comes sideways
Now more smarting pellets
Than soft drop splashes
The clouds darken
Pellets turn to sleet
Big patches of flakes
Swirling in the wind
Melting upon touch
Sunset falls
Flakes turn to ice cold dark drizzle
A typical, but cold April experience
Best looked at from the needed rain perspective
Snug and warm indoors
