Yeah, you need a little sauce after a day like that. There's nothing like a shot of brandy and a hot fire. I'm sure everyone can sympathize, after all who hasn't had one?

Hi Cindy; LOL! Yes, after a good soaking, it would be wonderful to go home to a nice hot toddy!

LOL! I'm loving this poem. What a fun form to write and you've done a great job with it. Theme is amusing and happy-go-lucky. It tickled my funny bone. I'm happy to see you joined our group, Patty. Marilyn

Hi Marilyn; thank you so much for the lovely review of this poem. I had a good time taking on this 'Picture This' prompt. This picture could be taken so many ways - I just keyed in on the rain,

Comment from Thomas Bowling
A very good poem. I'm not familiar with the style, but this is an excellent representation of it. You are very talented. I like that you write well in a variety of genres.

Hi there; thank you so much for the wonderful compliment - I try to keep my creativity flowing by writing different genres, and using different poetic forms - the challenges make writing more of a puzzle for my mind,

There's a challenging style of poetry! It's interesting how differently the one picture gets interpreted by people. I can only say I enjoyed reading

Hi Jill; there are so many similarities between the weather in the UK and the Pacific Northwest. I felt quite at home when I visited a few years back,

You viewed the picture much as I would have - cold and hard and kind of depressing. You wrote the poem perfectly. Loved the form.

Hi Heidi; thank you for the lovely review. It rains here a lot - the months from October through the beginning of May only saw 8 days without any precipitation. It was awful!

Weather has negative factors
It makes one miserable
A warm fire
can heat old bones.

Cold storm, freezing shoes. Life goes own. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very good read. There is very good imagery.

Hi Patty, Loved your take for this image. Your poem told of a hurry to get home put of the rain with your wet feet and glad to get to the door. Interesting style this Monchielle I like this.( just check you syllable count for these line 'Shoes filled with feezing water' ( 7) and 'Soon I'll hit the sauce (5) I may be wrong but just check. These lines did not distract from your poem I thought it was excellent, Cheers Christine

Hi Chrissy; thank you so much for the review of my rainy poem. I appreciate you pointing out the syllables - I went and made a few changes; I usually count syllables on my fingers, and I guess I got myself a bit confused. I'm glad you enjoyed the little story within the lines of the poem,
