Torturous Rain

Cascading down my back Are drops of torturous rain They never seem to ever lack Cascading down my back This hurtful elaborate track Of disastrous crushing pain Cascading down my back Are drops of torturous rain Russell Sivey Entrant into Carol Brown's "RAINDROPS FALLING" contest 8/17/2012

Congratulations on your win in my "Raindrops Falling" contest Russell. I had a very hard time judging this contest as most of the poems were so well written. Thank you for supporting my contest. Love, Carol
