Wren in Pearls
Photography by Anne Brigman
I’m dressed for clouds.
Like a gray wren in pearls
I am a monochrome relief
pressed into sky arguing with sunlight.

Tantrum
Ms. Rainbow enters the stage in her gown of charmeuse silk quoting Wordsworth and silences the sun’s soliloquy on his relationship with clouds. Her theatrics are more jealous tantrum than artful expression or love of poetry. For all her brilliant colors she only draws a moment’s adulation before her attraction begins to fade. ©Susie Clevenger 2019 #NaPoWriMo2019 Real Toads ~ The Tuesday Platform
