Cloudy Days

O ever changing sky, blue-gray and maudlin your mood and unsettled ways, meld with mine. The clouds seem but blemishes upon clear skin O weary sky your cheeks seek only sun's shine and gentle winds to sooth me in decline. O let the clouds turn white and bright the day let my bruised heart heal not be consumed cirrus streaks and cumulus in joyous May may your changing beauty raise me from my gloom for clouds are naught but fair as new day blooms

and yes, the sapphic stanza is DANG hard. However, I can see myself growing accustomed to it if I would just start dong a lot more of them.

I like the gradual shift in thought here. I always like a happy ending too. ~ Is the contest page okay now? I noticed that on my computer it has made a hash out of the formatting, but is at least readable. Rather aggravating.

You gave this cloudy sky a mood and a soul to match one's own..... excellent and with more emotion that all the others I have read here.
