Rain Puddle World

Clouds drift lazy by sunlight ripples in the breeze A blue sky on glass Edges of my world do blur captured in a rain puddle For Brian Strand's contest Placement: 2nd

I really like this title to go with this poem. A cool tanka, Paula. Down there in the sizzling heat of the desert!

Great representation of the blur of a puddle amid the breeze( evenescent)How our minds drift in and out in reflection of our soul in search of completion.(with the hectic world to distract each of us) You took me deep(GREAT IMAGERY) A good day to you......God bless~^Rick

very nice Paula. Good luck in the contest. There are no rain puddles here to reflect anything. Wishing there were. In a severe drought her in Fl.
