Beneath the Ash

this rain pours over me will the sun ever be? cloudy eyes just can't see sapphire patches peek through this mask of ashen hue that hides the grains of blue 02/11/2020 F F I series 72 tercet Blog Series Brian Strand

Thank you Anne-Lise, we are way above normal for rain and every week it seems most days are rainy or cloudy with little burst of sun here or there but never a string of sunny days... though we have been lucky and haven't had much snow... hugs

Nothing more depressing than a grey dreary day, roll on spring, even better summer. Tom

Thank you Tom...I am thankful we haven't had much snow but at the end of the year we were already way above normal rain fall...I think we reached normal before june even hit but the pattern still seems to be with us... i'm with you on the summer...it can never get here quick enough...

Seems your day is similar to mine but somehow your poem makes this dreary day so much more beautiful. Best wishes in the contest Sandy
