Storms Aftermath Workshop poem: Imagery (Scribbler)
Scribbler's workshop:
Storm's Aftermath: auditory
the winds die down
to a whispering breeze
birds begin to chirp
and sing once again
squirrels chatter
back and forth
as children laugh
in tune with
the ice cream vendor's
cheerful chime
and the world sighs
with a contented relief

This is definitely auditory,
This is definitely auditory, well done Cat.
My sister and I were playing in my great aunt's garden when
we heard an enormous boom-like explosion, this was repeated,
we immediately thought of the very large ice cream man,
with his motorbike and ice cream, and we roared with laughter
at the thought of him exploding!! We rolled down the sloping lawns
and couldn't stop. Each time we visited our aunt, at certain times of day,
this happened, so I can't read about the ice cream man
without smiling from ear to ear! And that was SOUND.
Still laughing after 67 years!!!!Nordic cloud.

Hi Cat
Very good. Other things could have been water related such as last drops of water dripping from a tree or the declining murmur of runn-off in a ditch. Go ahead and gather further comment then start deciding whether to do your rewrite in same or different type imagery...............stan PS hope your recovery is going well
