Downpours and Lovers

Football players huddle up
      Heavy rains puddle up

    Civilization, all muddled up
      ~ Carefree lovers cuddle up

Civilization muddled up. there isn't a word to express how much of a muddle the world is in. Thank you, Gershon, well expressed as always. Take care, Shirley

each line has its impact - but line 3 makes us stress and as for line 4 civilization is one great mess but carefree lovers cuddling could be the line with most success. Blessings and hugs, JENNIFER.

Yeah, might as well have love, esp. when everything else is messed up. :)

"Civilization, all muddled up"..... and everything is sadly messed up. Such a situation who can clear up.... is the question before us.

That is. indeed, a very good question, Valsa. I think that the pathway for you to clear it up is wide open. ~ Just sayin'

I decided that the last two words were 'cuddle up.' I was thinking of 'pucker up' though... ~ Stiff Lips

You used up all the "uddles!" I couldn't find one to send back. It does make that great soggy sound. Liz
