Notes About The Poem

Rain and Sun

Dull
grey clouds
I'll get drenched
pitter patter
rain

Bright
rainbow
arcs the sky
soon we'll see the
sun

I'm back, not necessarily more matured but I'm quite good at faking it, and I am fully prepared to do so. I don't know the contest requirements, but know the ending sweetly and immediately brightened me up! You've written another and I'm off to read it. Sure enjoyed this one. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

The hope from a rainbow is such a blessing when seen in the skies Jan. It is like a love letter from God! Thank you for this inspiring beauty I know will do well in the contest. xxoo : )

Nice lantern. I love the rain and the rainbows. It shows us the riches of the colors as some are brighter than others. A good one. I wish you luck in the contest.

Many, many rainbows in Hawai'i to brighten one's day, yet I have never heard anyone complain there were too many! Good luck in the contest (well done off the top of your head)! Aloha! Rico

Good luck in this contest Jan, love that the rainbow comes out after grey skies and the pitter patter of rain. The only sad thing about a rainbow is that it dissipates so quickly. Beautiful poem. Poetry hugs, Jennifer.
