I love everything about the rain, but I understand it can create a gloomy mood for some. So thankful the sun came out in the nick of time. :) Your thoughts hold many emotions. This is deep, with a little humor to lighten the mood. Congratulations Clive, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy

Hi Clive, Thanks for the laugh still early in the am. It's a very witty take on death but if we all have lived and died a hundred other lives (some to believe in this), it makes a lot of sense. Congratulations on your POTD..It's great to be funny in these intense times we are living in. God Bless..

Clive Culverhouse
Date: 11/30/2023 6:25:00 AM

Absolutely, thanks for your time Nancy

I've thought that, if it was sunny you would feel you were missing out! Amusing thought Regina, thanks for reading

Who knew rain could be so malevolent? Good ol' Mr. Sun saved the day once more. Nice to see you got your first feature Clive

I know what you mean. The ones we wish would be picked often aren't. They say it's algorithms. Idk

Clive Culverhouse
Date: 11/30/2023 6:22:00 AM

Yes my first poem of the day feature! I'm amused it took one of my more outside the box "silly" ones but perhaps that's the reason it is. Thanks Tom.

Congratulations on your POTD. You have labelled your poem as light verse, but is it? To me, sounds deep.

Clive Culverhouse
Date: 11/30/2023 6:20:00 AM

Perhaps, I was going for light because of its "silliness", actually I think I might have inadvertently invented dark light verse, thanks for reading

a deep and profound poem, Clive. Sometimes I things happen and I truly feel as if I'm dying on the inside. But then the situation changes and the sun comes out...just in the nick of time. Excellent Clive...have to fave this one, Sara

Sometimes we worry over things, when it rains and when we go through somethings, to later when the sun rise, to look back and laugh over it. Although when things happen it definitely is not the most fun experiences. This is a deep poem. And i think many can resonate. Pleasure reading this

The humour of it aside, it is a deep poem, thank you for your thoughts upon it, much appreciated IE
