Wellington Bomber

the wellington bomber dropped something
people screamed and ran for cover
but then paper pieces fell
softly fluttering down
falling like snowflakes
someone shouted:
it’s raining
dollar
bills

Ok, I see I was right in that email to you. This IS the contest about the strange picture. You sure came up with a good story for that picture. It has to be in nonet form too? I'll look at it again.
