Laura Leiser Poet Free verse

A Little Drama

A sudden wind ripples over the staid waters
whipping around like a blustery drama queen 
flinging water droplets in its wake.
Placid pigeons are suddenly stirred
wild wings whir, along with excited coos
as the midday sun smiles through the clouds.

John Watt May 18, 2022 at 5:20 PM I love the line "whipping around like a blustery drama queen" in this little vignette of nature doing its thing. It seems your muse has come to visit you this month? Very happy for you, thanks for sharing your wonderful talents with us, Laura. Warmly ~ John Laura Leiser June 2, 2022 at 9:41 PM Thank you, John! My muse comes in fits and starts, but I’m always glad when it return (though less often than I like!)

Katharine L. Sparrow May 10, 2022 at 2:40 PM Oh, I love the idea of the wind as a drama queen! What a great metaphor! It has been very windy where I live recently, and it's bugging me! But, with that midday sun peeking through the clouds, there is hope for warmer weather to come. Enjoyed this positive piece.
