Poetry Part Three


Poetry Part Three


            Okay, okay, I need to admit this week’s poem was a little harder to create. My mind has been busy with many things. It’s hard, sometimes, to settle the mind down to write. As I sat here for a few minutes trying to decide what the blog would be this week, I thought about one of the many stories I have started. The story itself was born from one those “look at this picture and create a story” things. While what you read in the poem below is not the story I’m writing, it’s based off the same picture.


 


Standing in the Rain


K Wendt


The midday darkens


A breeze plays with my hair


The sound in the clouds beckons


Rain dampens the air


Plop! Plop! Plop!


It sings


As it drops


I’m listening


There’s a message there


Within the rain


Proceed with care


It strains


People walk by


They’re staring at me


My umbrella at my side


As I wash myself clean


*No, the picture attached is not the original photo the story is being written from.*
