green-leafed branch trembles,
robin sings to chiming rain—
spring passes in song

Beautiful. 🙂
Thank you, Robin. 🙂
Beautifully done. I like “chiming rain”, and good to introduce birdsong at a time when it is at it height
Thank you very much, Derrick.
A gentle chiming rain… here for the next ten day! Due to Alberto!
I think some if it will be drum beats.
Thank you. We’re expecting rain and thunderstorms here.
