I am OUT of sixes! GRRRRR! This is fantastic. The whole overall effect is stunning, the visual with your Nonet. If it was hard for you, you didn't show it. It flows beautifully and rather falls together, much like falling rain! :) It is lovely. I would think with the unique choice of topic and the way you put it together poetically in such a beautiful way that you would do very well with this one. I hope so!
Great Job and Good Luck!
Sincerely,
Wendy

HELLO KAHPOT: I like your poem here in that it makes me see, and feel what you are saying here. I can feel your rain. I can see your sunlight. You have written a rainbow in your message here. This poem expresses the beauty of the work of mother nature. In that it is good. Thank you for sharing. God bless you and yours. Cordially: rhonnie69.

This is a well written poem. I've never tried this form before, I may study it and give it a try in the future. Your poem certainly describes how nature behaves in a continuous cycle. Good luck in your contest!

Nice exercise in the format, and the use of form to create a feel, in this case, of rain falling in your face. The ever tightening lines give us that sense of a rhythm speeding up, a force drawing us down. The images work with it to round out the theme. estory

This is a well crafted nonet that shows the rejuvenating power of rain to nature. I like that it rhymes which probably made it more of a challenge to write.

Good luck in the contest.

Keep writing

Very pleasant and delightful poem. The Nonet countdown is really good. It flows smoothly and the rhyme scheme works nice. Nothing seems forced. Keep up the good writing!

If only one could beat a nonet into iambic meter, I would say it is one of the better styles, and end rhymes add to the poem, with a minor bonus for a pure isosceles text...excellent nonet.

This is a fine Nonet, and an excellent entry in this Nonet poetry contest Kahpot. Yes, evaporation is nature's washing machine, the process purifies the water, as the seas will eventually cleanse even oil spills, plastics are another matter. Well done, an excellent entry in this contest, good luck, blessings, Roy

You did a great job, kahpot, with your nonet contest entry. I enjoyed reading it. Good job on the syllable count per line. I like your use of rhyme, too. Your words flow smoothly and tell a great story of the water cycle. Your picture is super. Good job and thanks for sharing. Best wishes. Jan
