Raindrops


Raindrops falling down

Down to the ground

Like tears from the clouds

Drenching the crowds

As they hustle through the streets

Scurrying to meet

Their trains and taxi cabs

That will take them to

Their peaceful retreats

Where they all can play

And forget about the day

As the rain taps, taps, taps

On the window panes

They are warm and dry

And for awhile, tranquil and secure.

Good start. But why put your readers away by writing in blue. Just keep it simple friend.

Your writing would not lose its power if you use white text against a black background.

Thanks for reading.

I write in blue because I love the color blue. It's my favorite color. I don't write in blue for other people or to try to pretty up my writing content. I love to write, but my first love is fine art and graphic art.

My regular readers have not complained about the color and don't seem to mind. Is it difficult for you to see?
