  • Seriously, a "shower" (drizzling rain) is kind of depressing. Blooming flowers are "uplifting" and brighten your spirit. It's that simple!

  • At least in the UK, we often get a lot of rain showers in April. The rain that falls in April helps a lot of flowers to come into bloom (to 'flower') in the month of May.
