Brighter Forecast

Grey clouds slow streamed across a dark sky line
Day then was when I gleaned  a clearer sign
Way through the dark redeemed to brightening shine
Ray beams that cleaned my vision now benign
Play warm on harvest reamed to sweeter wine
May light a world I dreamed of future fine

This is the first time I saw the “triple rhyme”. I like it but do not feel I can rise to this challenge. Thank you for penning this one.

Thank you, Caren. This was a one off response to the challenge, probably never to be repeated.
