it drizzles and spritzels,
it pours and pratzels,
it trickles and ripples,
it splashes and washes,
it drips and drops
on top
of my stop.

in the attic i love the rain.

One of my favorite rain related books is "FLOOD" by Eric Drooker. He has a wonderful sequence sample on his website that I highly recommend to watch.

An urbane refrain-
Need a bonnet for this sonnet

Love how you mixed a visual (rain design of apostrophes, etc.) with the poem.

Thanks, Scarecrow!

Andy,
sure, a bonnet would come in handy, but if you are out and it rains the story is that:
no bonnet, no umbrella, no shield for the splat.

I know, Andrea, I was thinking that you already had the perfect post out for that!

You are a poet apart from an excellent illustrator. This piece reminds me of Shel Silverstein!

CRISTOSOVA hat gesagt…

Hi Aynaku, inspired by days of rain... sigh...

Lu, isn´t that Drooker wonderful? The book captures downtown New York on a rainy day so well! xxx (y como estás?)

Mirage, wow, thanks. I wasn´t familiar with Shel Silverstein so I had a good time researching him Online, love him! Makes the compliment even more precious! (Actually I just realised I had known Tori Amos version of the Sarah Silvia Cynthia stout.)

I always appreciate the insight of 99 beetles (and raining punctuation.) Nice. Eric Drooker's site is definitely worth a visit, too. Thank you for sharing & for your past comments!
