The tallest tower in the city has lost its top floor and canopy. It has been a landmark and tourist attraction for as long as citizens can remember. It was raining heavily and people are still guessing and gossiping, if it was an air attack or violent thunder. Visibility was poor and radar screens were … Continue reading The woman at the doorstep
Rain … by Aaki
She stood in the cold night ,
Her arms clasped tight
As the rain was pelting ,
Her heart was melting
Soaked in his memories
Her heart was warm and light .
His laugh ,mesmerising like the sunrise.
That deep look in his eyes,
That gaze ,that set her heart ablaze;
He definitely was not just a phase.
As she waited for her ride,
She couldn’t stop smiling wide.
Her heart was pounding,
With the rain drops resounding.
She couldn’t wait to see his face
And soak up his warm embrace .

Reena’s words : Let the thoughts flood your mind. You may use the word
‘Rain’
in your piece in any form.
Alternatively, I found a picture which is experimental on Unsplash.
nature gifts a tune
drips the drops of rain to play
gentle beats to soothe
crystals clear - misted visions
rhythms soft - comforts silence

Water held by the clouds
has an ambition to join its friends
in rivers , lakes, and ponds
leaving the relative comfort of the clouds
travelling through the sky
till it meets terra firma
enjoy colour ? watch it paint
as it travels through the grey or blue
brightening it up in seven different shades

It rained …. On specialmomsblog and her garden
A month of hot weather. The plants were sad. Their owner had been watering them from a watering can but they all wanted a shower from mother nature. With the smog it was much more difficult for them.
Usually they would get their blessings from Mother Nature at least once a week. But they could hear humans talking about climate change. They couldn’t understand a tiny bit and had their heads down. But it all changed one night. There was lightning and thunderstorms and more than an inch of rain showered on them. When humans closed their doors and slept scared of the lightning and thunderstorms the plants looked up in joy and started dancing.
The next day morning the zinnias had their first bloom. “We love our owner and his watering can but nothing can beat Mother Nature”, they said to each other.

Everlasting ink – when this story ends
When this story ends, Will I see myself again, as the one of me I never thought could ever leave, which was
The mermaid that longs for the looking of her soul
The one that thought therainof the water would never come again because he took her soul with him
And never gave it back because he thought the healing water was in her soul to keep
But he never treasured the mermaid from the sea he just wanted to keep her soul for himself
But she found a way to break through the bond that carried her in his circus of tricks and she found true love which was the promise of needing legs
To walk on the surface but that never meant she couldn’t be who she really was even with him for if he didn’t accept her
The sea would be her everlasting wish where…

Almost a slow burn … by Michelle Ayon Navajas
Almost A Slow Burn
it was meant to be a slow burn love story,
it was meant to be a drizzle of rain in between two unassuming hearts,
it was meant to be a steady summer slumber,
it was meant to be a happy ending;
instead a star -crossed lovers’ story happened,
instead there were solid downpour of unforgiving circumstances,
instead there were nightmares on hot summer days;
two hearts, needless to say wishing for a love to stay,
that summer when the rain wasn’t pouring,
that summer when dreams were like wishing upon a star,
that summer when the world felt like an enchanting place;
two souls, needless to say hoping to be one,
that moment when almost was just almost, a slow burn.
