Two Sylvias Press Advent Calendar challenge 2025: Day 17

For all the poems in this Two Sylvias Press Advent Calendar challenge, visit my musings here.

Prologue: This is a 31 day event that helps poets and authors all over to pen down 31 new poems in the month of December (2025). Every day we can open the calendar for that day to read about the prompt for that day. Then let your imagination fly to infinity with your thoughts and voice.

Note: I am starting late so might post my poems more than one a day. 🙂

For Day 17 the prompt invites us to become a poetic meteorologist. We should write a poem using forecasting language to describe a situation. More credits if it is in the form of couplet. Here is my take.

Life Destines But Weather Determines…

Saturday The Kids Were All Excited Because

There Was 100% Chance Of Seeing Their Cousins.

Sunday Took Us On A University Tour Among Applause

But The Kids Felt 60% Of Complete Nonsense

Until We Went To See The Boat Parade Outdoors

Which Required 80% Of One’s Patience.

Tuesday Took Us To A Movie That Should Have Left Us In Awes

But Everyone Felt 80% Only Of Jouissance

Wednesday Predicted 100% Showers

Left Us Indoors And Hence

All Look For The Christmas Day.
