Partly cloudy girls
bring their storms
to Sunday picnics.
Partly cloudy girls
have hailstone
hands to chill the wine.
Partly cloudy girls
toast the s'mores
with hairpin lightning.
Partly cloudy girls
are the rain
from a clear, blue sky.
A series of Kelly lunes for Grace's challenge at Real Toads

Or, of course, Kelli lunes!
I love this. It is so you. It reminds me a little bit of "Animal Girls", one of my favorites of yours.
That is clever. I like your poetry Mama Zen.
I really enjoyed this one..partly cloudy girls..I used your pic for mine as the moon spoke to me. Thank you.
Those partly cloudy girls can summon storms, hailstones, lightning and rain ~
Love the Kelly inspired lunes ~
Thank you for your lovely moon photo and participating in RT Sunday's Challenge ~
Totally hairless now, thanks. I had a few strands left till number two, but after that, katy bar the door. or loan me a wig. Or something.
Such beautiful imagery, Mama Zen. Partly cloudy girls are as necessary as the sunny variety!
"Partly cloudy girls" is so descriptive. Made me smile.
I love the hailstone hands and the lightning hairpins.. Everything you write is unique.
Partly cloudy girls? what a great idea! I can see them now, fluffy but nonthreatening. After them the rainbow in the clear blue sky!
I see some Practical Magic in your poem or perhaps Story Sister ;D
Love it!
Oh those partly cloudy girls carry magic...love it!
Your lunes make me smile, these "partly cloudy girls" are wonderful whatever their antics,,
Is partly cloudy girls anything close to slightly bad girls? As always, your poetry jumps off the page ... right into my psyche! A good thing.
You have a wonderful way with metaphors. Great poem.
Like Kerry, I loved the hailstone hands! Your partly cloudy girls are almost as wonderful as you, Kelli. They work fast and to the point.

Ouch, I would not like s'mores from those girls! Your refrain, "Partly cloudy girls," is wonderful. Their name is Legion, and I've known many.
Insightful and delightful. Amy
hmmmm partly cloudy girls ... I've definitely met them before. wonderful.
Partly cloudy girls! Who but you could have thought of that? Wonderful.
These are so rich and full, so you. You can pack so much into such a short form. Magic bursting out all over. Love them.
You have such a good ear; your rhythm and rhyme are always impeccable.
I love this: "hailstone
hands to chill the wine"
