You did a great job describing that rainy Monday day. Your words are descriptive in such a way that I could see the rain drops on the window pane and the goose gray clouds floating by. Rainy days are perfect sleeping weather.
Thanks for haring.
Respectfully, Jan

I would enjoy the levity if it weren't for the fact that I get up on average of five times a night, rain or shine, to pee. I liked the feeling of the soft rain in your poetic verse.

Your last line made me laugh out loud.

Your poem, overall, paints a very vivid portrait of a dreary, rainy, cloudy day, but your third verse, in particular, is one to which everyone can relate. I know too well that feeling of hearing the rain on the window pane and enjoying knowing I'm snug in bed, but then the alarm pulls me out and makes me realize I have places to go and promises to keep, as they say. Of course, your last line is the most relatable of all. Thank you for that well-needed laugh.

Your rhymes are very well chosen. I particularly enjoyed "mundane" and "windowpane."

Thank you for sharing the humor. I was enjoying all your poetic descriptions of the gray and rainy day and was quite surprised at the ending. I guess biological urgency is stronger than "promises to keep." Lol.

Hello Jmf4119,
Nice piece of poetry having lucid as well as PERFECTLY matching the theme phraseology, smooth flow throughout from the beginning to the end with lovely rhyming scheme, and TRANSPARENTLY depicting its theme.
The 3rd Stanza is particularly noteworthy, and the last one is also not less interesting due to the flavor of humor.
Picture enhances depth and beauty of the poem.
Keep this SPIRIT up!

This is an excellent poem in all respects--featuring someone awakening
to a rainy day, pondering life, the coming day in particular--but first, the bathroom awaits!

The author's words are engaging, descriptive and creative. I pondered
on rainy days here in Florida which hardly happen. And identified with
the words of this poem. The poem flows and connects well. The artwork
is perfect and compliments these words. Hope you are doing well.

Yes, a little levity can go a long way on a rainy day. You really had me dreaming away at the beginning with the soft rain and goose gray clouds. I love the way you transitioned to the surprise end.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Everything was worth the ending Janet...super. Its not often a poem makes me laugh involuntarily, especially when thought to be taking another direction. Good to see your humor in tune, and even better to see the unexpected.
Have a beautiful day.
Best wishes.
RG
