 Poem:

SUMMER SHOWER

 

The rain falls softly against my window pane
tentative at first,
like a hesitant lover
not sure his presence is welcome.
Then...becoming bolder...not
wanting this moment to pass him by.

In a matter of moments,
the azure blue sky,
with a whisper of gossamer pillows
playing tag around the sun,
abruptly put an end to their frivolity.

Like a stern parent,
he summoned them together,
as in a war counsel,
to chastise them for their playfullness.

Thunder, rolls across the sky
with a might roar,
and lightning
streaks across the heavens
to add a reprimand to the proceedings!

After a few moments,
exhausted and spent,
the sky once again returns
to it's former splendor
and pays homage to the Sun.

Sarah <3i think i can sum it all up by saying this poem is amazing! i absolutely love the ambiguity and symbolism/personification of the clouds, rain, and the sun. it's cool when poets can take something we know and love so well and give it human characteristics so it seems like nature is one big show around us...it's the way i feel all the time when i watch the seasons change...thank you! keep up the good work!

Beatrice Boylewell done!floating in bangladesh ganges river8/26/2009 4:15:38 AM
MaeveI think you are a born poet and I love your style. You peice words and phrases together wonderfully and one can imagine the scene described in your poem by simply reading it. The only thing I would critcize you on would be the category the poem is under. There is no alliteration in it, and I fail to see why you think there is. Other than that, it is beautiful, and has a brilliant vocabulary. From A Fellow Poet.New Zealand8/20/2009 3:05:56 AM
