Introduction

This is a villanelle example for the forthcoming "Showers And Fools" Challenge that has been inspired by the image above. I really liked it, but it wasn't right for the story I was writing. To me, it cries out for a story of the joy of experiencing showers and rain in a beautiful forest.

A Forest Shower

Let Us Feel The Sweet Rain On Our Bodies

We Can Take A Path Under The Tall Trees

A Lovely Shower In The Green Forest

Come, Let Us Dance Like The Woodland Fairies

Enjoy These Tranquil Moments In The Green

Let Us Feel The Sweet Rain On Our Bodies

Under This Leafy Verdant Canopy

Those Cleansing Drops Of Water We Can Feel

A Lovely Shower In The Green Forest

The Rain Cascades From Clouds In The Sky

To Shower Us, And To Wash Us So Clean

Let Us Feel The Sweet Rain On Our Bodies

To Be Unhappy Here Would Be Folly

So Come On, Let Us Do It, You And Me

A Lovely Shower In The Green Forest

Shower In Nature Soothing Us Gently

Out Of Doors, We're Sheltered By These Green Trees

Let Us Feel The Sweet Rain On Our Bodies

A Lovely Shower In The Green Forest

    AI art can surprise you sometimes...good and bad. Art fits life.

    Nicely done Mike!

  • It's hard to find anything I like more than the sound of a good rainfall. I may have to leave this playing for the entire 10 hours, then start it again.
