All In a Day

A black cloud dangles
Effortlessly forms
A haunting image
Showers travel east
Daisy hides her face.

A Robin sings
A melody
The sun appears
Once more she smiles.

Grass uncoils
Raindrops dry
Web retracts.

Sunset
Moon beam.

Stars.

Congratulations on your win Harry. I can see the picture you create with the limited syllables. I especially like "grass uncoils," "raindrops dry," "web retracts." Truly nature is never static! Congratulations on your win! Blessings!

My favorite time of *day* is actually when evening falls. A combination of the "Sunset" and the "Stars". So dreamy and romantic indeed. Of course I enjoy a low dangling cloud, with rain to soothe me. Your thoughts leave me in complete awe. Congratulations Harry, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. :) Hugs, Brandy
