-Very nice image and presentation.

in April. I've also seen it in Oct. and Nov.

Do you know what kind of bird that is?

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review. I appreciate your insight. Actually, no I don't know what type of bird is displayed.

You are very welcome. I asked because we have a bird feeder, and in the winter we get the bird in your picture. It's official name is a Junco, but they are often called snowbirds. They come down from Canada because it gets too cold in the winter. I always enjoy seeing them.

Thank you for the information on the snowbird.

You are welcome!

This is a well written poem. Your poem gives a valuable lesson that sometimes things out of season can be in God's plan. Your syllable count is on point. Nice poem.

Author,
Your words express a question we ask God a lot, and I'm paraphrasing, 'why the rain in our lives?'
Sometimes our lives don't go as we plan, and it snows in Spring, which is supposed to be a time of renewal and hope.
Exceptional poem,
Good luck!
Cindy

I am like you and love April when Spring usually arrives in full dress--flowers and trees fully-leafed and days 20-30 degrees above freezing. But we've had snow some years. I truly believe--like the Speaker--"it's God's will" when it comes. Rod

Thank you, Rod. It's such a downer to see snow when it's your birthday and you are ready for renewal! I appreciate your commentary.
