About This Poem

rains in my garden

                                                   ,    ,,    ,,   ,


                                           Rains  in  my  garden,

                                           Zinnias  look  freshly  bathed --

                                           My  shoes  are  muddy.




                                                             ~

    The extra effect of raindrops are sooo cute and the impromptu puddle too. Zinnias are the hardiest of our flowers here in Ohio...Like a floral rainbow but without the scent. Great haiku with a reverse position that will wow Charles. I really like how you approached this contest. Good luck to you! Love Gwendolen...ps..I wrote a quick twin rondelet...give it a peek. :) :) :0
