Tapping

Soaked leaves of green
bereft of rain
with palms up.

The trunk,
a lanky youth -
feet tall, chest out.

Oak peeks, at prism,
looking through
square window.

Big puffy clouds
not seen,
but thunder is heard.

Inside is dismal,
cloudy and gray,
except for tapping.

Four walls press in
to see
what’s all the fuss…

This poem beautifully captures a moment of quiet tension and introspection. The imagery is vivid—especially the “lanky youth” trunk and the contrast between the outside storm and the inside stillness. The tapping becomes almost a heartbeat, a subtle defiance against the enclosing gray. Thoughtful and evocative work.

Not familiar with the form, but still engaging read, Kim. Bill

Excellent job dear Kim, I think that the title to a poem is as important as the body of the words themselves. Thank you, James McLain
