My blue umbrella
today the rain came
trees taking long drinks
cooling off the land
birds flutter away
my day now unplanned
splashing in puddles
rainy wonderland
Today's moody blues
my heart is heavy
I need time to think
maybe, take a snooze
where has the sun gone
thoughts wander to you
these clouds will disband
cartwheeling times hand

And for today’s MTB prompt we are going to write an Octameter – designed by Shelley A. Cephas in 2007
Poetry Style:
- 16 lines
- 2 stanzas of 8 lines each
- 5 syllables per line
- rhyme scheme a/b/c/d/e/d/f/d; g/h/c/g/i/g/d/d.
(N.B. watch out for those repeat rhymes and where they fall; 2 in the first stanza and 3 in the second stanza)
Author's note: I think I was inspired by all the rain from Debby and the use of my blue umbrella.
