Rainy Day In Wales

The Gre.atest of sounds is rain coming down ,on a caravan roof on your hol's
Its one of the b.est  beats around since Ringo Starr played on those drums. 
so get the dominoes out and start counting out the fives and the threes 
You look out of the window and watch as the rain just buckets it down.
You turn on the heater, and shout as you beat your  sister at the five and the threes. 
Your dad tells you lies about the  rain coming down  as being from god crying in heaven . 
As the light fades away your tucked safe away and the rain turns into a lullaby from an angel.

night skat 






comp entry 16022016 not sure if fives and threes played  over the pond think it may have, its a game played with the domino's

You should be able to edit your poems if you like. If you click on "My Poems" in the left side of your screen, and then scroll down to one of your poems there should be an edit button, also on the left side. Yeah, Hay-on-the-Wye is where the book festival is held, but I didn't go during the festival. I just love all the scattered book stores everywhere.

So THIS was the Ringo Starr poem ... lol! You know part of the reason I clicked on this is because I actually visited my uncle in Wales (I'm from Idaho). It's a beautiful place, and I especially liked Hay-on-the-Wye. This was a unique rainy day poem. Are the periods in between some or you words intentional or just typos?
