Spring Storm
Spring Storm Jim Wayne Miller
He comes gusting out of the house, the screen door a thunderclap behind him. He moves like a black cloud over the lawn and-stops.
A hand in his mind grabs a purple crayon of anger and messes the clean sky. He sits on the steps, his eye drawing
a mustache on the face in the tree. As his weather clears,
his rage dripping away, wisecracks and wonderment spring up like dandelions.
