When you see me wet in the rain,
You know I am traveling
on a one-way train.
You may wonder aloud
what's all the
frowning and the
Groaning and the
Crying and the
Trying all about.
My mind stops functioning
And refuses to take
That unpaved road
As images in my brain
Begin to download.

Great Job!! Love it!!
this is lovely!
check out my flash 55 at http://instantwords.blogspot.com
Very nice -- a lot of meaning in those 55 words!
Nice!
I'll have to try working a future 55 into a poem rather than a story.
My 55 for next week is more prosaic than poetic.
Well done. Love the photo too.
thanks for the comment on the weeds. I have to worry about the weeds in the flower beds. They are a pain.
Thanks for your help..
Awesome beautiful picture !!!

A one way train, with frowning and groaning. This is not a happy trip at all. And you're soaked. Jingle you got us worried now.
Re lakeviewer:
No problem,
It is a moment of thoughts,
everything is great with me.
Re: Amy:

Excellent my friend. A lot packed in 55 words that is excellent :)

I keep hoping one day Pamela Anderson will say those very words to ME.
You say so much in your 55 words. :)
Oh my goodness! That is beautiful! Really, I am so impressed, and immersed in those words. Thank you for sharing your talent yet again!
this is simply fantastic :)
...and your passing thoughts became permanent words. Worth saving!
Such lovely meaningful words Jingle...a great 55

We all take the unpaved road. Whether traveled or not, we haven't been down it. Fine 55 and thanks for stoping by to read mine.
You sit outside as a beautiful flower
Time goes by as you count the hours
You see what is coming big dark clouds
The flash of lightning and the thunder it sounds
But the thing that makes this happen has not yet
It is all about the rain and getting soaking wet
enjoy Jingle and Happy Satyrday to ya(+)
