Spring Rain

clouds burst
day brings
spring rain 
drops fall 
on tin 
barn roof 
ping beat
wash off
loose dust 
breathe in
clean air

Nothing like the rain showing up cleaning away the grit and refreshing the air... Nice picture drawn with very few words. I enjoyed reading this.

Hello, Jo, thank you for the inspirational compliment. Poetry soup definition. A footle is a 2 line, 2 syllable trochaiac monometer poem with an integral title suitable for light, witty, pertinent, topical verse.
