Words From Rain

surrounded by dark
drops of rain dance one by one
each forming letters

words spelled out in haste
as the next covers the last
all mean the same thing



Skats "Dark Rain" contest...

Oh, I love the unique nature of this clever poem....I picture those raindrops as letters forming words, being erased by new rain...well done!!! (I would have placed this one higher on the winner's list!)
