Emerging From Gray

A biting wind with broken teeth, has left its blackened stumps hanging from the limbs of disrobed trees A washed-out daylight seeps gray. The streets were bareboned, greenery lusterless and scant. Too sudden it seems, too stark the change from picturesque autumn and this threadbare canvas. A walk in the park confirmed, my eyesight, my picturing has changed, today vision reflects a mind drained of the light of elation. Time to shake myself like a dog emerging from darkening waters. Time to change my climate, open internal windows and seek delight. © 2 days ago
