defying atrophy

Obscured

I see you…

Rising above the clouds
which obscure
where your building began.

You continue to rise
In spite of the clouds,

And clouds don’t last forever.

One day…

You will stand
strong
and proud,

And I will see you fully,
top
to
bottom,

Illuminated
by a never-ending sun.

    ❤ I love that you’ve completely turned the dour turn of my poem back on its head and found some light where I found only a foggy shroud. 🙂 Thank you.

      I don’t let myself read your poem before I write mine. I find interesting when we sync and when we diverge.

        That’s surprising. We are so often in sync. 🙂
