Sea Rain

It’s raining out at sea.

Dark clouds grumble, heads together,

Voiding diagonal grey streaks

Over the shining gun metal ocean.

 

How long before it hits?

I have no wet weather gear

And today I’ll run far.

 

I think I’ll risk it.

"Sea Rain"
zugzwang,
"dark clouds grumble, heads together" What an expressive picture!
"Over the shining gun metal ocean"
This line too is a fitting explanation of not only the cost of running as you see the rain approaching but also the cost of living in life's challenges.
I found this poem of yours a good poem to ponder.
Blessing to you.

Thanks as always Kathy. I'm glad you liked this little piece. You gotta love running in the rain. Anyway, I managed to stay dry that day!! But I still like the metaphor.

There is a grace to the rainy day. It is so melodic and air takes on a light sweetness. Your poem was a word to the worth of something and making it happen. Rain or not. Exercise is so important. I'm glad you have a happy memory.
