Poem Idea - Weather

Weather can be a hope or a hate topic. Weather can cause us to look forward to the day or dread it. Think about the calming drips of a slow rain as it provides tasty water to the thirsty verdant terrain. Now, increase the intensity to pitchers of liquid being poured across the fields and add the swirling of a more steady breeze. Take one additional step, increasing to truckloads of drenching intensity, massive whoosh and whoops of howls exposed more frightening by a deep violet backdrop covered by enormous gray, but temporary soldiers.

Think about your imagery. Watch the news. Tune into the weather channel. Determine the intensity or calmness or your weather…and, write… Remember poems are simple, but have all the power of a story in a little, tiny space, kind of like that afternoon shower. Post it here, or share elsewhere, but write and enjoy…
