What a lovely and fun description of a rainstorm, Brooke! I especially like your use of the word, "plop." It's a great description of the sound of huge drops of raining hitting the ground.
Sawyer must absolutely love this poem -- one more to add to his list of favorites. Your alliteration is wonderful, adding to the flow of your words.
Thank you for sharing yet another wonderful poem, Brooke. Take care. Alana

This poem is so well written. I felt like I was reading it out a book at Barnes and Noble. You are so talented and gifted. I am fascinated with the rain and I remember being fascinated as a child. I loved the way grandpa is so technical and grandma encourages the kids to dream. Thank you for sharing, blessings, LyngLyng

This is a winner, Brooke! What kid wouldn't smile at all the vivid imagery, fun with numbers and possibility that gold comes from worms? Good luck with the contest. Craig.

Comment from humpwhistle
At the point when the rain stopped, Brooke,
I actually sensed a shift in the poem.
I can't find it mechanically, but you seemed to
insert a 'rest' between the third and forth verses.
I felt it before I read it.
Are you a witch?
Really, Brooke this is a delightful poem. Publish.
Peace, Lee

A witch. That sounds like so much fun. I wonder if there's somewhere I can sign up and find fellow witches :-) Thank you so very much, my encouraging and generous and entertaining and talented friend :-) Brooke

Sure, all the witches go out and dance naked in the woods every full moon. Uh, that's what I've heard. I've never watched. Who told you I watched? No. Never. Once.

naked? I have to get naked in public? there is always something...
Comment from fastdigits
What always makes you stand out
is that you entertain with your
writings, they tell stories in so
many different forums, and each
one is a delight to read
You say quatrains of 7/7,7/7
technically they fall as true as
the raindrops you have written
of.
Well done

Comment from mermaids
I like the description of dandelions as gold. This is a marvelous poem for children. It teaches them how to count,yet is full of whimsy and imagination. You also have a strong steady beat that makes this poem almost a song that children can sing.

Comment from juliaSjames
Impeccable meter, good rhyme and delightful word choice (plop!) make this a charming story poem - complete with characters!
I haven't read the other entries; but I think this write must be a contender.
