Haiku Vomited Verses

gray clouds floating now raping rainbows killing souls blue birds not singing Cloudy overcast sky today Oh where is the sun? I miss the rainbows and the birds darting gleefully Even the birds are low key depressed Not a single song sung At least black birds can rise above the clouds to hear an angel sing gold notes shadowy clouds darken the mood Who would embrace the gray day It is not even raining gloom Which is beautiful in its own way Come back lemon sunshine or come fast blue heart of mine I know this is a part of fall I even welcome white rain For clouds that seem a pregnant pause Today devoid of natures gain.

Dark clouds, heavy with rain tend to make us sad. Unfortunately, they are necessary as the rain makes every thing grow.

Volcanoes erupt, lightning strikes, thunder rumbles, and haikus vomit. Who am I to argue?!! lol. Interesting angle here, Karen! :) gw

Hahaha! Haikus are not my strength so I figured I would experiment. Hugs Gershon!

Great change from the usual Haiku! Wow! The verses below it are really honest, I love them..nothing like a poet that tells it like it is…that would be refreshing …you!you.I loved that artistic line,” it is not even raining gloom.,. Congratulations on a fantastic write filled with expression. Pangie x
