I’ve not entered Vivian Kirkfield’s #50PreciousWords contest before, but felt moved to write this yesterday. If you’d like to enter as well (or if you’d like to comment on my entry), you can do so here. Hope you enjoy!
NATURE’S CIRCLE
Drip,
Drop,
Drip.
Springtime coaxes snow away from winter’s icy grip.
Drip,
Drop,
Dry.
Summer’s swelter calls the water back into the sky.
Drip,
Drop,
Drop.
Autumn twisters beckon storm clouds, pitter, patter, plop.
Drip,
Drop,
Drift.
Winter closes nature’s circle with a frosted gift.
