Choices

[Delta40]

Here is a storm gathering
And I wonder how thick the clouds
Between us might be.

What? No thunder?
Oh, fizzley fizzley do!

No lightning bolts in the sky
And I wonder if love
Ever struck us down.

You a constant shower
Oh, drizzley drizzley do!

Heavy rain on my parade
And I wonder if it promotes
New growth.

Here I stand in puddles.
Oh, grizzley grizzley do!

Then I skip, splash, laugh
Along my side of the street.

I like the spirit of the poem. Great to see you post again!

Nice pattern with the frizzley, drizzley and grizzley dividers. The part about love ever striking us down was pretty good. We don't really want lightning to strike us down, but if love doesn't strike us down maybe we have missed too much.

beautifully expressed
a charming piece full of fun!!!

Missed this somehow.

Enjoyed.

I dislike contention, and change... New growth not withstanding.

Hoping your protagonist fares well.

Thanks everyone. It is my hope to one day stumble across a valley of expression where I might dance, sing and swing from its trees!
