Standing In The RainA Poem by Nigel Mim Avedon
Why time rhymes with rhyme,
Or why limes line the vine, Purchase wine and a yellow dandelion, Transformed from a swine to superfine, I rehearsed a word and a punchline, Why? Because that girl is super fine, I took my change and hoped on a train, Choo choo the loud sound left a stain, I folded my arms simple and plain, As I envisioned me in her world as small as a grain, Come out! Escape! I needed to leave my brain, The stories I would tell myself heavy as a crane, Out the window there she stood, Soaked and poetic standing in the rain.... © 2016 Nigel Mim Avedon |
