The Inkwell

from inkdrop – poetry, places and events

In response to the daily post prompt
Drop

Delightful little uniform shapes

Round one minute, tear shaped the next – landing

On rooftiles and gardens in a street near you.

Pavements creating pools in their cracks

 

Daily occurrence in spring and in autumn

Rivers rely on their contribution – to keep the fish happy

On warmer days, they stay in the clouds

Propelling to the ground, when it’s time to cool off

 

Do you know ? they’re quite artistic

Rainbows form when they fall in front of the sun

On fields they make the green grass grow

Perfect food for a strawberry patch

 

Dainty little flowers await the

Raindrops to quench their thirst

Over time they amass in great reservoirs

Providing water for all of us to drink

      Many thanks for reading, Hemangini. Glad you enjoyed the read. Feel free to wonder around the rest of my virtual home here on wordpress…but mind out for Rover’s Squeaky Bones – he leaves them all over the place! 🙂
