Blessed Day Qd

It was no propitious day it seemed The misty rain overlong prevailed A feeble sun, time to time had gleamed Through vaporous clouds on landscape veiled I made my farewells to friends no more And took to the streets now dark and damp My life uncertain no pathway sure I lingered under a dim street lamp That instant saw it would all be right 24 September 2019

well done! love the message here. all the dreary dim and grey... then suddenly all is ok. I was surprised and had to reread (sign of good poetry in my mind) and the aha. Reads like a winner to me!

"I lingered under a dim street lamp That instant saw it would all be right"- nice words and it's always important to end the day on a positive note for all of us.
