Suns Apart

Once a ballade upon chastised boughs, It's now finished on the clouds. And with their much too full skies, Its own scruples disappear; the strife While the sun of this morning goes— Steps behind lumps in sugar coats. No more a silver lineage, another crown— That is the new heart weathering now. I'm glue in bed; shook up the frame, Within window sights— a picture of the rain. Though the madness on curtains gone— There is no ghost to be of the sun. It would not pass through rain's skim, For a shine on an unfaithful whim. No place to stay on the soaking ground, Its lemon tears dry on the clouds. Dark times close for rainbows banished— Not coming down, it willfully vanishes.

Your choice of words intrigues. I loved the same phrases that Susan did. The title itself is so creative. Thanks for your very many visit to my poetry.

Weather is difficult to predict. I love this ever changing fickleness that you described in this couplet.

Dear Paige, gifted poetess, your imagery is exquisite! I adore it all, but especially "Steps behind lumps in sugar coats" and "Its lemon tears dry on the clouds". Your creative pen spills beauty and originality upon the poetic page and my eager imagination. Your artistry outshines the sun! Warmest wishes my sweet friend.. ~Susan

Good rhythm, rhyme, and flow to this one. Yes, the sun won't be seen here for a few hours this morn because we have heavy clouds. Thanks for sharing your talent with us. Sara K
