Scold

Skyward I cast
this melancholy,
hook a cloud
and drift…

A dalliance
with the sun –
his irrepressible
optimism scolds

I let go the tether
retreat to sombre soil
re-commit to
gloom’s scold

(Image my own. Scold first appeared on Twitter)

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential.
