Metronome

I found a writing prompt online and these were the guidelines: "write a three part poem using metronome". So this is my attempt. 


I am a little off beat. I sing
in the rain. I'm like rain,
falling at the wrong time. I'm
like music in a foreign
language.

Can you hear the tip
tap of the drops? I move
to that rhythm. Join

me and let this
metronome guide our
next steps. That is,
as long as you don't mind
Bollywood music
and splashing in puddles.
