Allen Beilschmidt Sr. Poet Free verse

Darkness Looms

When will the fog
lift off the bay

When will the sun 
scorch it away

Mind dank in darkness

     Black hole
                  so black
                                falling
                                falling
ever deeper

a veil looms
where joy
once existed.

Oh
for this weighty 
fog be lifted.

Jennifer Proxenos April 15, 2019 at 12:21 PM Foggy, cloudy cold wet weather can work on ones nerves, and mood if it continues for a long period of time, enjoyed this poem - well done Allen. Poetry hugs, Jennifer. Allen Beilschmidt Sr. April 15, 2019 at 12:43 PM Thank you Jennifer

Sara Kendrick April 14, 2019 at 5:43 PM Enjoyed reading your work today. Depression can be a bad fellow and here lately so much fog, clouds and rain or snow it brings a body down. You described it very well. Sara Allen Beilschmidt Sr. April 14, 2019 at 5:46 PM THANK YOU SARA
