Melancholy Days

As the blue jay chirped, my sadness seemed to fade away; But she lost her voice. Melancholy days returned; Like a never-ending flood. Alexis Y. 02/04/2021

Expressive and emotive work. The sound of birds can make our day. I haven't heard the doves cooing in a few days. I guess this cold and wet weather has them hunkered down. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

so sad, but such a good tanka. I hope you are not feeling like this but judging by your other poem I read, maybe you are struggling. I hope you will have a happy weekend!

When the blue jay finds it's voice, rejoice again and reach out for your poet's pen. Belle :-)

Hi Belle, Thanks for such an encouraging comment. Sometimes when I write( just let my muse go), I feel much better. I appreciate that you stopped by today:-) Alexis
