Wandering eyes

Submitted by Edward nigma on Sat, 2024-03-30 09:58

Wistful wandering eyes
scattering across
the cool colorless
cloud filled skies.
Desperately
digging through
its shallow
shades of white
in search
for some subtle
sight of light .

When I wrote it’s about finding the light or hope in the darkest hour .
