to the liquid which
pounces down on us, drenching
to the very bone.

Written for NaPoWriMo on day 16. Today, the task was to "celebrate that yin yang quality – the eternal twinning of opposites by doing one of the following: write a poem in the form of a complaint about something that is good or you like, or in the form of a hymn to something that is bad or that you dislike. A rant about blue skies, an encomium to rainy days. A curt dismissal of strawberries or beach vacations; a paean to Brussels sprouts, or waiting rooms."
Well, each of these ideas could have set off my creative forces, but rain was first – so there!
Not to worry, though; I'll probably rant about strawberries on the beach very soon.

I'll drink to that!
Once again you've shown me how that prompt should be interpreted. I hadn't really understood it!
Well done, iself.

Thank goodness Writer's Island left us free to choose our own subjects! Though rain is good...in moderation!
Phew, I guess we can't live without it!
Very appropriate for where I am today. Rain has been pouring all day! ;) Well done!
