The weather is still so wet and windy after the first two named storms, tree uprooted, streets flooded and crops ruined. Hope everyone is surviving this terrible weather. As I was walking to the shops, I was stepping over the puddle and I suddenly caught a glimpse of the sky in one of the puddles, I found myself looking down at the pool of water and seeing an upside down world, it was fascinating.

This poem was inspired by this thought.

 

Rainy View

heavy streaks of water

makes my view a muddle 

for my upside down world

is nestled in a puddle

rippled by a strong wind

disturbed by a passer-by

creating a blurred image

that`s confusing to the eye

captured just for me to see

reflections of all around

are mirrored yet distorted

my little world on the ground
