Grey Skies

Grey Skies
The dark clouds are heavy in the sky
They brim with the tears of heaven
It falls with desperate longing
I look out my window
The drops fall faster
A heavy heart
When it stops
Skies clear
Calm

I’d forgotten about these weird little forms of poems.  This is a Nonet.  It starts with nine syllable then each line has a decrease if one syllable until the last line which has one.  Interesting.  But I needed a form tonight. Lacking inspiration.
