What Will Tomorrow Bring

What will Tomorrow Bring

Hoping for Rainbows

Hoping for rainbows after rain, 				
wind-blown rose petals of red.  				
Petals pierced by thorns of pain				
like butterflies’ wings spread.				

Wind-blown rose petals of red,				
bleeding from a broken heart				
like butterflies’ wings spread…				
remnants of love ripped apart.				

Bleeding from a broken heart,				
petals pierced by thorns of pain.				
Remnants of love ripped apart…			
hoping for rainbows after rain.

Hi Pandita, what does one say about your excellent poem in the Pantoum form? Your words flow so wonderfully in this form, they are gentle and beautiful and the Pantoum form is so gentle. Sadness can have the deepest beauty when written well. All tomorrows sing a brand new song. The art is always in making the song yours. Rainbows come from the heart. This is a definite fave, an excellent Pantoum. Hugs....Mike. XX
