Overcast sky
Like a lover’s mood
Gone sour
Rain clouds dancing
Waiting for the downpour
Looking for some relief
From the gray
Look for my beacon
To One Tree Hill
I make my way
What are neighbors for
If not to brighten your day
Pocketful of persimmon
Was my reward
To push my gloom away

Lovely! So bright and cheerful despite the gloom and unhopeful start! I see that I’m no longer following you which explains why I haven’t been getting any notifications from your blog. Rectified it.

In Silicon Valley by now I am accustomed being dumped,😀
Seriously though I think WordPress has an inherent issue of automatically” unfollowing” based on some hidden logic. Just couple of days back I saw that someone that I had been following regularly stopped showing up on my reader. I am still following but not seeing any post from the author. Had happened couple of times before and I had to delete and reinstall my mobile app.

I have a long string of notifications that come to my mail box, but I don’t know why those and not others. Some don’t seem to go anywhere at all. WP does a sort out of which follows are to be taken seriously; seems like.

Great idea to include some pictures between poetry lines. They also push the gloom away.

That’s a lovely ode to the gloom though dark clouds inspire beautiful lines of light lingering behind them. 🙂

Pictures very effective to show lightening mood – from gray to colorful. Nice.

Love how you overcame the gloom. Just because a day doesn’t start out right, doesn’t mean it has to stay gloomy.
