Rain pelts, lightning tiara,
emerald green limbs
drip gold loquat jewels,
sapphire seas belt her girth.
Bermuda, dark and stormy,
wears her weather well.
Various storm brewing photos and their aftermath in Bermuda over the past two months. Yes: the water is really that colorful!! No photoshopping done. Poem offered for NaPoWriMo Day 3 (without prompt). The loquat is a delicious fruit that grows on a tree and is ripe when golden. The Dark ‘n Stormy is also the national drink (made with Goslings Black Seal Rum and Ginger Beer).

She sure does….and here in Boston, Temptress Spring is dousing us with flurries of snow — on April 4th!

We had more than flurries this morning but it switched to rain before it accumulated into anything. It made driving into work tough with reduced visibility.
