Gray heavy oppressive
from sky to earth, filled
a burden pressing down
draining away happiness
rain drifts lightly to earth
kissing the grass hello
quenching their thirst
as they wait on the sun
it is from this gray day
comes the joy of flowers
birds washing loudly
happiness abounds
I only needed to change my perspective....
I made a pledge to myself to write a poem a day for the entire year. Now to follow through. I preface this with a reminder; most of the poems written for this year long project will be done so spontaneously and therefore will not be edited. Bear with me on this. The project goal is to get them written over getting them perfect. Several times there will simply be the poem with no title. When that happens suggestions for a title will be welcomed in the comments.
