My newest poem, from my workshop: Updated at 9:21 PM
“Rainy”

Words in

                 Drops


                   I want to read

                                 But


                                     Down the
                                Glass

                               they go

                                  Even.

                                    Rainy words

Any meaning?



                              Silence


                              Flows



                              down

I'm glad you do!

The assignment was to write on any surface...So I chose a rainy window where the words would be washed away by the drops.

Thank you, sweetie!

8. Lovely, and evocative...
evocative of the rainy days coming, and the way thoughts and feelings sort of melt and run and, well, you know.

Wow!

So pleased you like this!

I wrote it Tuesday night after coming home from the workshop...I was on fire!

The assignment was to write on a surface ...any surface.

You should have seen me struggling today with HTML, for the spacing! NOT fun, lol!

Thanks, sweetie...

I wanted to give the impression of water washing the words off the window, as the rain streaked down.

Thank you!

Wow! This is the thing about poetry...

I can write something, and everyone can see totally different things than I did...

And that's wonderful!

I'm so glad you enjoyed this...

Thank you, sweetie...
