It's Now

The flotilla of the ivory-varnished sailing clouds, gliding across the cerulean sky of serenading spring, turned into the menacing fleet of sudden scare. Its shadow of invisible danger has changed our lives, maybe forever. Tangled in the complex social web of modern life, the distance created on the track of changing times, enhanced perforce at coercion of survival instinct. The widened crevice in kinship will remain unclosed, maybe forever. But I still see in the sunburst splendor of dawn sky, rays of hope etch golden lines on gloomy clouds, it won’t be long when surely they will melt away. If there is a time to venerate the ravaged nature, it’s now. Wrapped within collapsed wings of the caged bird, confined psyche crumbles in the abyss of desolation, fortified it’ll rise from the debris like the sphinx. If there is a time to keep the morale sky high, it’s now. April 1, 2020 Contest : What Matters Most To You Sponsor : Chantelle Anne Cooke
