Rainbow Blind

Whenever my emotions are gathered pain side down, a smattering of silent, shallow, cobweb shadows wear me as woe’s weighty gown atop clouds blind to rainbows where naught is wrought but gloom’s sound, tempo fraught, inbound.

another wow from me!! You made this short list. Wheeee. Let's celebrate!! I read it a second time and liked it better because I really focused on the despair in this one. LInes 2 and 3 are really well composed for imagery, sweet friend!

Snowball contest made for fun writes, didn't it? I admit I'd never heard of that form, that mine is totally made up - not depressed, but I've been there enough to write about it. Glad to have your response, Kim. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
