My Little Garden - Nk

weather turned cool
                                             light breezes
                                             from the pool
                                           chilled my heart
                                             made a spool
                                               at the sky
                                              a whirlpool
                                         of thoughts began

                               all at once there was a cloudburst
                                      my little plants fell down
                                   making the whole sight worst
                                     would they flourish again?
                                   their heads almost submersed
                                        dawn came; I ran into
                                     the yard to see them first
                              found them swaying with lovely smiles.

Ahh!! So sorry about the rain and fear of destruction to your plants but they were saved which is wonderful to hear. I wonder if things will get back to normal in hurricane ravished areas. Congratulations on this winner. Sara
