Wonderful use of imagery in this beautiful Etheree poem you have penned for the contest. I absolutely love thunder storms. You're right, they can make you feel small in the scheme of things.

You did a good job with your contest entry, Mystery Author.
I enjoyed reading it. Great job with the image and the syllable
count per line. Your message was well stated and true. Line 8
looks awkward being so much longer than the others.
Best wishes in the contest, Jan
line 5--pedals--->petals
Rain
falls cool
on dry earth...
Thirsty flowers,
like praying hands,
raise their petals in praise.
God provides for all with love.
Thunder rumbles, lightning flashes
reminding us of how small we are,
in His vast universe that has no end.

This is a beautiful ethereal poem from start to finish. I loved the magical artwork with the rain falling on the daisies. A powerful message in these well written lines.
Very nicely done.
Blessings

This is the best entry thus far I have read in this contest. Your message is clear. The font size is good, but I think the black font is too hard for this poem. I would make the font green like the earth the flowers are planted in. The same color green at the bottom of the fantastic gif visual. Then you would have the earth tones of brown and green. I love your visual. Good luck in the contest.

You are welcome. If you are who I think you are. You and your daughter has started me using gifts for my poems too. Goo in my folder and look at the poem "I Feel Misty". It was the best suggestion.

We are truly insignificant. In the grand scheme of things, as you put it, we are but those flowers awaiting the rain. This was a very well-written etheree. I love the moving picture, as well.
