About April Showers

April rain has its own particular magic — the soft hiss of drizzle on a windowpane, the smell of wet earth rising from the garden, and the sudden blaze of a rainbow arching over a still-gray sky. Rubber boots were made for days like these, steering small feet straight toward the deepest puddles on the block. By the time the clouds part and the sun returns, every lawn is a deeper green and the first spring flowers are already lifting their heads.
