The Cost of Rain If rain- drops cost only a penny, I wouldn't be able to buy many. But still I would try, to make the sky cry one hundred and fifty cents worth of drops. |

I like the shape poems...and this one is nicely done... ( smiling) 1.50 worth of rain... afraid if raindrops cost a penny and we had to pay for it... most of us would not get much... I enjoyed! |

wow! needing rain so badly that you'd give all you have to get as much as possible! Just as the widow of the widow's mite gave out of her need her sincerity was so great. Well done shape poem and sincere plea. |

Just because you did so well on the shape poem, I will toss in another buck fifty to double your dose. I so enjoy it when someone tries one of these. Well done and I look forward to your advanced "shape poems" now. |

Lovely drop of wishes! I really liked this so much. I hope you get your money's worth and maybe even a little extra thrown in for a bargain! Sincerely, Regina |

Ah SmittenKitten ... this is delightful! Wonderfully shaped, and with sentiments that I understand all too well. I'm in Ontario ... and we're sooooooo incredibly dry, it's frightening! Well done! Best wishes, /Kit |

And thanks for stopping by  Kit~ A fellow Ontarioian! Well you *do* understand then for sure! Thanks for reading and commenting let's cross our fingers for more rain![This message has been edited by SmittenKitten (edited 08-18-2001).] |
