Like Rock Paper Sissors

Like rock paper scissors When the sun comes out to warm applause And illuminates the sky Its’ radiance covers the world But when clouds cover all The air shivers And shudders until it howls A hearty wind to blow the clouds away The ocean covers the land And loves to give its’ water to the sky When the rain falls to earth We all dance for the greening growth Lay a blanket upon the ground Then kiss snowflakes tickling our tongues Amid swirling covering flurries Seeking to uncloak the key to start the thaw That covers the winter milieu We shout for the warm summer sun to arrive And cover the waiting world Once again

"When the rain falls to earth We all dance for the greening growth" - I thought it was just the two of us, now I know!

Brilliant use of simile, Jeanne. "Like rock paper scissors." I enjoyed this very much. ~Mark

Oh, my mind - the places it goes; your poem made me a Brownie, scout camping and singing these lines around the campfire while an adult played the guitar. This is a good thing I'm saying, I could hear it sung, why it had to be me as a Brownie we needn't ponder. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
