Waiting
for the rain to retreat
there is no place
to take shelter
the dinghy and i
left and forgotten
toss and tug
at the line
that holds us
hoping to escape
and drift to seas
of sunshine

(Will. it. ever. stop. raining.)

raining a lot here too!
Hope the sun shines soon for you!!
Brings back memories of a time I was stuck on a lake in Canada under a terrible storm. So bad even the loon tucked against the side of our boat.
Great shot and the perfect words, Reena, as always! We're getting some rain, too, but not as heavy or as much as a couple of weeks ago! Hope you "dry out" soon!
Perfect verse with the image.
Lots of rain expected here today, too.
Ooo, neat image which hardly appears to be a photograph. Having nice warm sunny weather here again in northern California but you probably didn't want to read that.
what a beautiful shot!
Your poem is perfect for your image, well done! I hope the rain stops for you to go out and play!
This is simply beautiful, both the photo, and the poem.
The rain brings a certain beauty of its own, but it is nice when it stops :-)
hope you find those seas of sunshine...smiles....been hot and then rainy every day this week....just dont let the boat fill up with water...smiles.
Such a beautiful, captivating photo!!! Love it...and the poem:)
good gosh....can I relate!!!!
Hi Renna...It doesn't look good does it, just when I think it is going to stop for awhile it starts again!!
So sorry that your dinghy is just sitting there waiting for the sun to shine, but it is a interesting photo!!
Nice poem too ..to bad it isn't about sunny days on the bay!!

the sunshine is the brightest and warmest after a good rain.
has it stopped yet? is this an east coast storm? i guess i should watch the news.....xo
But you make the wait so attractive, Reena!
Great words and photo! If you could send some of that rain out this way, it would be greatly appreciated.
its raining here again .... hoping for blue skies soon
Someone is looking for rain, someone for sunshine.
Such a difficult situation.
makes for a photo just as gorgeous as a though.
What beautiful words. I'm guessing you're having a rainy summer like we are?
Poem and photo give me a rainy-day feeling. Send some my way!
So nicely written. My Mom in the Mid-West speaks of rainfall in every conversation by phone. Amazing how many months this pattern has continued!
I'm sorry about all your rain!!
It is raining today with predictions for the same all weekend.
It's OK here as we haven't had much but I know it gets tiring after awhile doesn't it?
Sending you sunny thoughts!
xo Catherine
I swear it is raining everywhere. And especially on weekends!
Rain, rain, go away
And stay where you go, damn it!
Far too much rain and far too little sun so far this year. I hope you get some happy sunny days soon!
That's a lovely shot. Hope the sun has come out!
Oh, this is just wonderful work!
That rain looks beautiful to me. Its been so long since I have seen rain I almost forgot what it looks like. :)
I love your poem. You are one talented writer my friend.
Hugs~
I think I heard that this has been the 5th wettest June in RI on record and the month is only half finished! It is certainly getting tiresome:(
Love your poem!
lots of rain here, too;
certainly makes for some lushness.
greener than green.
mold too but i won't talk about that.
happy oars,
Jennifer
Both the words and the photo are beautiful!
It's been raining in my hometown for the past 7 months! Amazing, considering that I currently live in Phoenix! :)
We've had a nice summer of rain so far. I hope it keeps up.....and that it keeps everything green!:)
