This poem was inspired by the images for these 2 prompts: MLMM’s Photo Challenge #417 and Sadje’s WDYS #137. I wrote it, a curtal sonnet, a few days ago and was not entirely happy with it so almost forgot to post it before the next WDYS is released!
The way ahead could be vast as the sky, Its limits only bound by my belief -- Yet how closed-off it feels, making me cry, Unable to find a path to relief. How much is self-imposed, a needless thief? Suspending disbelief for but a day Might help me find a sky that is not gray -- And in those clouds some brand-new shapes are found. Then on the Earth I'll stand and look around, And hear a voice point out, "This is the way"-- How sweet the sound!
