Poetically Mime

POETICALLY MIME The vast ash-leaden clouds are in tears again... The soggy tears like boxing fists - casting bruise and blues below. Unlike yesterday where they mirror gentle caress to branchlets and blossoms smiling in gratitude as they are showered free, the dust and dirt slithered to them were cleansed swept by the warm - cold kisses of heaven's cry. Condescending, blooming sunnier hues of greens, standing poised and aplomb amidst, respiring anew! Rainy days chant tunes of melancholy at times particularly to those who are lost. Alone. Afar. However, it has to happen for it is nature's rhyme. Let it be as heaven's cry a bosom of poetic mime. ___________________________________________________ POEM CONTEST: 265 REVISED to any form ANY THEME max of 20 lines ***9th Place*** SPONSORED by: Brian Strand Written January 21, 2017 @ 23:18 PM

You have lost none of your poetic style and touch, Olive_eloi. Rain can be seen through contrasting lenses, and you have described them well. Hugs // paul
