This pom presents a beautiful word picture and the alliteration is effective. I'd like it if you would explore this further in a longer poem. The photo is just right

Your illustration, of course, pairs perfectly and sets the stage for your words. It appears you aced the twelve/five poem. This is very nicely done.

I thought all the 'p' sounds captured that sense of raindrops dripping into the pond in this piece. Interesting that the fish seem to be feeding on them. A feeling of being fed by heaven's hand, I guess. estory

Hmm, what are the famished fish feeding on exactly? Is the rain stirring something else up because their seem. Something missing.

Your syllable count is good.
