children's voices filtered
through steady rain
the past always with me

spring rain--
a child gives a dance lesson
to the cat

AxoDom said...: Hi from Paris,

Loved Marg's.
deeper
     deeper
           into the stream
                  shadow of a swallow

Translated it into french :

Toujours plus au fond
noyée dans le courant
l'ombre d'une hirondelle

And shared it on our little poetry group on Facebook, "Amis de la poésie, bonjour ! ".

Cheers.
