Raindrops Pitapater

As fog shrouds the house
Raindrops pitapaters
From roof onto ground
Rain lingers on the tip
Of French Tarragon
So my tears cling to
Cheek this early morn
On the porch quiet
Opens door to sorrow
But soon sun will shine



(Five syllables, ten lines, unrhymed)

I really like the "beat"... the...(I don't know the word)...the rhythm in which this was written... very nice, indeed.

After nearly a foot of rain, the sun finally came out here, so this was a timely read for me, Sara. Very nice use of imagery -- can almost hear the "pitapaters." Love, Carolyn
