Summer Shower

sun
                summer shower
             dark pregnant cloud
        large plops, rainbow forms
              short sharp burst
               heavy downpour
                        rain

Hi David. Your weather is similar to ours over there. Thankfully we don't get the tropical stuff my sister endures in Queensland. Thanks for dropping in

I love this Jean. The rules were so specific guess that is why this was not on the list? Cheers, Connie

Hi Connie. I like it more than others of mine. For a long time the sun refused to move to the centre of the top line. Maybe that's why it rained on my parade, prize wise??

P.S., my diamond has lost it's shiny top. I cannot get it to sparkle again. It must be a diamond in the rough. Thank you for letting me know.

Moodiness of summer rain--so well depicted in your poem, Jean.

Well done Jean, non stop rain for two weeks now. Heatwave on the way. Good luck. Tom
