(Poem 154 for 2024 – I am writing a poem a day)

The darkening sky
has balled up her fists,
begun to glower,
and let her rage roil.
The sudden assault
when she unleashes
a torrent is surprising
for its violent beauty.

(Poem 71 for 2024 – I am writing a poem a day)

Rain, rain, here all day.
Drench the world and stay to play.
Sky purrs, rumbles low,
trees sway, cool winds blow.
Days like this bring me rest.
The earth and I are truly blessed.
@Home Studio – 71st poem of the year
(Poem 33 for 2024 – I am writing a poem a day)

Soft rain the show we are watching through
open door, curtain tucked into the waist of
stacked trunks standing guard at least for a
century. How many rains have they seen?
Many more than the cats and dogs staring
with wonder at the wet world; even more
than me with my half-century life spent on
not watching enough rain in the past, so I must
make up for it by analyzing every drop.

(Poem 22 for 2024 – I am writing a poem a day)

This person so intrigued
the Crown Prince
that he nicknamed them
Drizzle in honor of his
favorite weather.
Friendship born of intellect,
shared sensibilities, and wit
creates the game board on
which all future maneuvers
rely, regardless of gender.
The game is set, the stones
properly aligned, the trash
talk spoken in earnest,
and thus begins the falling
in love one move at a time.
@Home Studio after watching the 1st 2 episodes of the Korean period drama Captivating the King – 22nd poem of the year


In the Joseon era in Korea, they played a board game called Baduk (Go) an abstract strategy game with pieces called stones. Mongwoo is the Korean word for drizzle and the nickname given to the opponent by the Crown Prince because it drizzles the first time they play against each other.
