DAY . LESSON IN NOTHING

LESSON IN NOTHING

A blanket of grayness 
gently covers the sky,
pillowy slate clouds 
pile up in the morning.
The world holds 
nothing she wants,
she doesn't believe 
in illusions.
Nothing to gain, 
nothing to lose.
Lesson learned 
the hard way,
she rolls over, 
escapes in sleep.

Marianne, I relate to this completely. We are living in strange and depressing times. Thanks for writing with me.

Love,
Pamela
