#SOL18: March 28

Drip! Drip! Drip! Drip!

Gently, slowly,

Each drop distinctly different.

Read, comment, read, comment,

Catch up, catch up, catch up,

A slicer’s work is never done!

Booming thunder

Loud and rhythmic

Not just white noise.

Write, read, write, revise

Let it rest, let it brew

A writer’s work is never done!

Pounding, roaring, louder and louder

Mya crouching and hiding

Lightning has arrived.

No time to nap, relax

Or read for fun today

A PD presenter’s work is never done!

  1. I can relate to our tasks never seeming to be done.

  2. Love this little nugget of a poem! Especially connecting to rain. Side note…I want your blog background of “be curious”!

    1. Thanks, Liz. The background was just the one post it and then maybe “tiling” to copy it multiple times. Curiosity made it work!

  3. Like your transition from “slicer” to “writer” to “PD presenter”. I also like how as the storm intensified so the urgency of the writing seemed to escalate as well.
