Dancing in the Rain

It was a day of summer
Where the sun burns across the sky,
Then clouds dark and menacing
Crept along past the horizon,
The wind began to blow
With tension in the air,
With a single crack of thunder
The clouds began to cry,
Down to the ground
Fell drops thick and cool,
Soothing the sunburn
Of one sweet child,
The days of dust were over,
The worry of drought relieved,
The farmer thanked his God,
Through his window he saw
His sweet child,
Dancing in the rain

About this blog...

All poems posted here are written by myself, and I hope the ownership of my work will be respected.

I am 25 years old, and have been writing since I was 8. All poetry is dedicated to the teacher, Miss Charlotte, who first introduced me to this genre of writing.

Challenges

I use several writing prompts, mostly photographic prompts, for my work. Often when I am not consumed by a thought or emotion, I need a little help in writing. I subscribe to two photo blogs as listed further below for prompts. I also take challenges to write about random words on my Twitter. A new challenge I am using is from Deviant Art. I look at the first page of the most popular photography in the last 8 hours and take one to write about.
