Joseph May Poet Triolet

No Sign of Rain

 The sky offered no sign of rain
 No pitter patter songs were heard
 It seemed flowers would wait in vain
 The sky offered no sign of rain
 There was just a dusty refrain
 No nimbostratus were stirred
 The sky offered no sign of rain
 No pitter patter songs were heard

Your words capture the essence of longing and the stillness of unmet expectations. It's a powerful piece that is deeply felt. —your work is truly inspiring. - Blessings, Daniel
