~*Raining Cats And Dogs*~

Rainclouds overhead
Arizona monsoon approaches
Impatiently I wait...
Ninety-five degrees outside
Ice cream would be nice
Note to self-
Get some mint 'n chip


Clap of thunder
At last!
Tiny raindrops fall
Storm is underway

Awesome lightning strikes
Narrated by thunderous song
Deafening serenade

Dare I dance in the rain?
Opalescent moon appears
Grins at me...and I
Soaking wet...smile back

Just thought I'd share this oldie with you since
our acrostic challenge is just about over.


"...until you have read the verse on his heart,
you have not truly met the poet.

Awesome...absolutely awesome

Standing on the edge of the world
Now I don’t want you to catch me
I want you to let me
Stand up here and walk on my own

I traditionally doing like acrostics. Maybe its cause sometimes they just dont sound good. Maybe its that I cant write one   But nevertheless, I LOVED this one. I love rain and I love that feeling you aptly described. How could I not love it? Mint N Chip ice cream and Rain in one poem!
