to those who’ve lost their way
and mourn the songs of old
hear her song of gold
let it lift you in its sway
its melody weaving hope for this new day
as her harmonies take hold
like sweet nectar for the bold
and a cure those who’ve lost their way
Choosing hope today … or I’m trying!
nature’s blush
spring awakening
life renews

dust fills my mind’s eye
conjuring a drab vista
as doubt smothers hope
tears transform the dust
a rainbow lifts the drab sky
and hope muddles doubt
I’m all about the ying/yang again today.
Our daily Three Things Challenge words are the following:
DUST
DOUBT
DRAB

light dances at dawn
sound breaks free from the darkness
a new day’s promise
nature’s elegy
as crags are born from the sea
time erases all
I decided to embrace the ying / yang of our existence in this duo. It’s something I’m working on it life as well!
properly mad
the top spins a tall tale
of a glittering lad
too great to fail
but great can be bad
and fake glitter corrodes
so properly mad
the foundation implodes
properly mad
the broken top tries to spin
but it wobbles and falls (SAD)
and finally We the People win
Thanks to FOWC for this chance to vent some wishful thinking in awkward verse.
To all participating in NO KINGS tomorrow, thank you and take care!
