Orange fluttering from the arms
Of the tree, descending to
The Earth, swallowed by the
Brown, trodden upon,
Sodden to the core
MAY SHOWERS
uterus of earth
sodden seeds in liquid dream

sodden vapors cling
drench my soul with thoughts of you
leaden in the night

If too much grog has left you foggy,
Your sodden noggin grimly groggy,
So much sauce, your socks are soggy,
Loving you still, will be your doggy.
This is a nostalgic trip,
Once milk bottles let it rip,
Forced milk to scoff,
Some days it was really off,
Then for lunch sandwich sodden,
Tomato, cheese, hot or rotten.
woven
words
fabrcated,
degenerate
as
driftwood-
sodden
stained
weaving
wavering
silent
shadows
foredoomed,
lost
in
the infinite
fucshia azalea
clings limply to sodden branch --
morning showers fall

post drizzle-logged
morning trek;
leaky boots
puddle splashed
sodden socks
peeled in a pile
by the door;
coffee's pot's
pungent pull
awaits
post dried off
head and
towelled feet.
A soul stands so alone
sodden, trodden, left so reft
darkening shadows
amidst dim streetlights, now angst
what was before, is now never

Coast
Fog bank
Shrouded cliffs
Mysterious
Cyprus trees lean inland against their will
Moisture drips like tears from sodden branches
Lichen on rocks
Seagulls swoop
Waves pound
Wind
Dahlia petals on the lawn,
dew-sodden in the October dawn
Michelmas daisies,limp and old
amidst faded leaves,now spotted gold
Bright bonfire-coloured leaves all aglow,
in Acer Palmantum's Autumn show.
Half sunk in peat and sodden moss,
redundant, clutching at the sky.
Rough stones nearby tell of a loss
long past. We look and can but try
to see beyond this relic on the hill
and hear the plaintive echoes still.
fiery flames above
a pool of sodden sulfur ~
sorry souls in blaze
dire spirits shout loud
extreme excruciation ~
echoes endlessly

Lace waves lap tender shore
Brush away layered sand
Erode this sodden land
Revealing something raw
A hypnotic deep trance
Horizon shrouded day
Clouds tumbling away
As the salty waves dance
As the salty waves dance
Mud
The Mud
Is the earth's black congealing blood
Rising above from the flood
Nature's pottery clay
The worm's die cursing
Into the Seagulls beak
As the tide retreats
Under sodden sock's and granny feet
A young man in a brand-new red Ford pickup
Is said to have had very, very bad luck
Driving it rather hard,
Through a neighbor’s front yard,
The yard turned into a sodden muddy muck.

The magic gem of curly hair,
Procures itself in sodden downpour.
Frizz retracts and curls define,
Revitalised by heaven's moisture.
No brolly required.
No wind-swept locks.
A long-awaited makeover,
Of the most natural kind.

Delicate purity
Softly pallid
None akin
Of affection and beauty
Chilling
Seraphic tears
Wept
Sodden snippets
Of yesterdays
Monochrome
Reminders
Without order
Devolving back
To nothingness
Amorous and beautiful
But so cold
Living on the river is fine if she will deliver
Most of the time she is a benevolent caregiver
But she has her abrupt fits of anger and frustration
Resulting in a sudden, sodden over hydration
But that suits me just fine and I will always forgive her
Frothing, Churning
The liquid inside me
Tries to Escape
I stay closed
And toss about
My Load all the more.
The weight of the Load
Made of sodden fabrics
Is nothing compared
To my Strength
I toss about mercilessly
Soaking, Tumbling,
I am undefeated.
What Am I?
I, the brook of your wails
Sodden my heart
Alongside the sheets of fails
The fault of what is to start
Perhaps the drama
Is too much for such
Fragile, naive.But mama
I'll take a seat and watch
You just ought the drama
To laze
And let father
Fade
Grassy ponds heave
under the tread
of moss piglets.
Kraken of microscopic
significance,
fill the forms of waterbears.
Tardigrade leviathans
plod a sodden sod,
toil assiduously
in the marshy haze
until Bur-marigold
grow out
of their dead giant heads.

*************
Lanterns cavort amidst the sodden stone
orchids fade like brief embers
blossoms return as rain
~~
The torrential rains
Poured into September with a vengeance
As the black clouds were driven in
By autumn winds,
Giving summer a sudden farewell.
Crushing my fading petunias
As the leaves along the dike
Were painted all shades of gold
And pushed to the sodden ground.
The Winter is enamel;
buckets of cold,
sodden pots of late growth.
Snow ship.
Trees taut with
tackle of frost.
Earth hard as
the white sea,
adrift and lost
between seasons
made of ice and sorts
of rain, not falling,
not sailing.
Dull and still
as December.
