An excellent entry for the 5-7-5 ode poetry writing prompt. Great job on this poem. The sound of water outdoors in all of its forms has always been a stress reliever for me and something that soothes the worst day. Good luck in the contest.

    Yes , water does miracles for anyone that is stressed out.

    I love the sound and I love to drink it too.

    We have well water that comes from the mountain I am perched on at 700 metres .. my pets love it , the garden thrives on it.

Love it. Love the trio of rhymes: trickle, giggle, and ripple. But what sends me is "streams giggle". Priceless. Excellent work on a 5-7-5. You'll get my vote!

    I love rain and licking the raindrops from the tips of the leaves.

    I have a stream close by that snakes through a pine forest.

    In Winter, it is quiet but come Spring it comes to life as the snow melts on the mountain above.

    I'm glad you enjoyed the read and a warm thank you for the vote !

    I won a shared blue ribbon, I didn't even think I would make the podium. (biggrin)

    Keep safe!

This 5-7-5, Mother Nature's Song, has the proper formatting and suggests that the rinsing rain affects us as it does the plants and creatures in the wider world.

    Thank you for reading and leaving a comment.

    I made the podium and won the blue ribbon together with Boogienights.

    I was surprised, I thought the poem was okay but not podium material.

    keep safe!

I enjoyed the originality of this 5-7-5 - the imagery of your rhyming verbs and the way nature's wonder of water can calm the soul. Great image too. Well done and good luck! Debbie

This is a great 5-7-5 ode poem. The wording gives the reader a visual. The picture is perfect for this poem. I like how your second line says, "streams giggle and waves ripple." The reader can almost visualize it as raindrops fall into the stream.

Great job

Cecilia

    I tried to have some rhyme when allowed.

    Glad you enjoyed my wee poem.

    I love the sound of rain and lick the raindrops from the tips of the leaves.

Franca,
What an extraordinary poem using just a few syllables!
I love that you made streams have human emotions, like giggling.
An exceptional entry, Tempest!
Good luck and hugs,

This is such a soothing poem! I love your word choices like "streams giggle" and "waves ripple" to share what feels like a peaceful movement. The final line, "stress washes away" feels like a perfect ending to this moment you've shared! It's like a little escape into nature - wonderfully written!

    I thought the verb "wash " went well with the water theme..rain, stream and waves.

    I appreciate your kind comments!
