Reena’s Exploration Challenge #113

Watercolor Garden 

In a beautiful watercolor garden 

There is a young maiden with skin so soft 

The colors melt into oblivion.  

She sits silently, waiting for the rain. 

Waiting for the rain to wash the color away 

So that the garden may throw  

new, fresh colors at her once again.  

And so she sits and waits. 

Like the delicate wings of a butterfly, 

The soft drops of rain begin to fall. 

Cleansing will lead to rebirth in  

New fantastic colors.

  1. I enjoyed this. I find it easy to write prose – I guess most people would say I have too much to say anyhow – but it was only when I tried writing my own limericks that I realised how hard it was to cajole the words into a secific form.
