Here's another offering to Poet's Corner from a Treorchy lady.

"Different Days"

Yesterday was a glorious day

It’s raining now, the sky is grey

Leaves that once were crisp and dry

Are wet now and too heavy to fly.

I stand and watch the rain come down

Mist covers the mountain with a soft grey gown

On my window I see raindrops glistening

I stand there quiet, thoughtful, listening.

Gentle rain falling washing the earth

Life-giving water from heaven for Earth

I look at the garden, the spider webs shine

Like diamonds on wires all in a line.

The last leaves on the trees grow heavy then fall

Soon they’ll be gone, no colour at all

The summer has gone, but I don’t care

I really don’t mind the trees when they’re bare.

When blossoms have gone and leaves are no more

Nature opens another door

So look behind it, don’t mind the rain

It helps the whole world come to life again.
