You've heard about the Monday Blues ❧✿❧ well this is Monday WRites (musing on the definition here of rite, as any customary observance or practice eg the rite of afternoon tea).
Welcome to Monday WRites #10; whats your mood today ❧✿❧ I invite you to link in with one of your WRites
SIGHS OF SORROW
Sorrow salts the dust,
Among the rubble, glimpses
Of miracles, where breath,
Retains determined strands
Of life;
Tremor after tremor shakes,
The dreams, of futures dreamed,
In the hearts of April,
By a people, challenged now,
To rise once more;
Nepal,
We are praying for you.
❧✿❧
the weight of tears
burdens a nation in shambles -
earths's moon sees all
